It was cool 23 but very light wind so felt pretty good this morning.  I ran out and back on 300S.  Today the plan was to do 10 x 1:00 at around 5:45 pace with a 1:00 recovery.  I did about 25 minutes warming up and felt ok getting going.  I started the first one and ran it around 5:50 pace.  The same for the second one.  After this one I felt like I loosened up some and ran the rest of them at around 5:40 pace.  I felt good on these but had to push the last couple which is good and shows correct pace.  I did a couple of miles warmdown after for an overall good workout.  Hopefully, the legs are getting used to running fast again and next week do some tempo work and MP longer run.

Yes, great workout! Sorry I haven't been keeping up with your running (I haven't kept up with anyones). I'll be checking in more often now that I'm getting back in sync.
