AM - 3 miles on campus. The light rain this morning is a sign of things to come... its a good weekend to head to California! Last tuneup workout before the Long Beach 1/2 this afternoon. I didn't feel like doing it in the dark, and figured I might as well get as many 10 hr nights of sleep as possible this week, so I slept in. PM - 8 miles. Track workout - 5 x 1000m + 5 x 200m (400m "float" b/w 1Ks, ~45 secs b/w 200s) Warmed up 2 miles and did some strides, then got rolling. The plan was 1/2 marathon pace (or slightly faster) for the 1000s, then "fast but relaxed" for the 200s. Splits were 3:05, 3:05, 3:04, 3:04, 2:59, 33, 31, 31, 31, 28. Cooled down with a mile jog.
