Big Workout today with Paul. I am glad that I took it easy the last couple days because I needed the rest for this one. We did 4x200m strides on the track to
warm up (35s each), and then did a 4x4-minute fartlek @ CV pace with 2
minutes recovery on the Millville Hill Loop. Paul mentioned I might not be happy with him half way through the run due to the hills and he was right. I made it through the first 2 intervals fine and then half way through the 3rd one my legs started acting up. Paul was about 20-30 yards ahead of me for the last 1 and a half intervals. I don't have my times for the last two. I was pretty disappointed with not being able to keep up but days like this happen.

I was happy to get such a good workout in. It felt like I was running with Jon tonight instead of Paul because he had to stop at the Port-a-potty! It got dark on us, so we
had to slow it down quite a bit the last couple miles due to not wanting to roll an ankle. 6:40/mile average pace for
the run. A touch slower than Paul because of the mishaps on the interval work. Still fairly pleased to get such a nice run in.
