Did aerobic fartlek today, 5x4' + 1x2' with equal jog recovery. I planned on running ~7:20 pace for 4' intervals, but they ended up faster. In general, I felt strong today, it was a good run. One strange thing happened in the park, though: on one of my faster segments, there was a group of teenagers standing on the path. One of them waited until I was passing them, and executed a karate-style kick that ended inches from my face!! I didn't have time to get scared, but I was startled. But since I was running fast, I just continued, not paying attention to them. Even if they decided to pursue me, I don't think they could run 7:00 pace for very long! But it was one of the stranger incidents that happened to me. Total time 1:09:50.
