Ran 12x400 meters today for a speed workout. For the first 1600 meters I ran 4:34, 2nd I ran 4:37 and 3rd I also ran 4:37. My fastest 400 was 66 seconds, slowest was 70 seconds. This was probably one of the hardest workouts that I have ever done, mainly because running such fast 400 meters back to back makes your legs feel like spaghetti. You know that it is a good workout when your lungs feel like fire, your legs are shot and you are only halfway done. For some weird reason, I ran 69 seconds for almost every single 400 meter lap. I guess that must just be my max pace at this point in time. Although I only ran 3 miles at max pace today, it feels as if I ran 10 at sub 6:00 pace. I started and finished with an easy one mile jog. |
