AM: Long run St. Pete with Anthony and Sean again. Added a workout in there too. I wanted a 4x3 mile, but no one was really interested in that, which is fine particularly due to the humidity, how I felt, and that it was Easter in St. Pete.

Traditionally, Easter Sunday is difficult to navigate running-wise by the beach due to all of the Easter services. Sincere déjà vú today as a result, as I had a memory of our similar run last year where we had a large group imposing on a bunch of services. Unfortunately today there was only 3 of us.

Running with Sean and Anthony has been tough the past couple weeks. It seems one of us is always "on," so it makes it difficult to resign a workout when someone is in front of you kicking your ass- which means we're always pushing in workouts. I can tell if we continue this, we are either going to gain some serious speed and fitness or we're all destined for injuries. It's always been a fine line between the two...

Workout was 3x3 miles with 1 mile recovery starting after a warmup.

Splits:

Set 1- 5:55, 5:48, 5:57

Set 2- 5:58, 5:54, 5:51

Set 3- 5:52, 5:51, 6:00

Nice running Mike - sorry I missed you guys.

I can guarantee if I were out there I would have been the one to resign the workout.

I think we all wanted to forego this one. I just was stubborn and made everyone do it :(

I hope you had an awesome Easter! You were missed. It doesn't feel right out there without ya.
