AM Did a modified workout Ryan Hall did a few weeks before he ran Boston. I ran to Potter ln for a warm-up, then did 1 x 2 mile, 1.5 mile, 1 mile, .75, .50, & .25 with recovery being the same distance as the interval and ran at easy run pace. I kept the pace around 6:15 for the intervals, which felt really comfortable, and 7:30 to 7:45 for the recovery. I did these as a bunch of out & backs to Potter ln to keep it all on the loose dirt and gravel surface of the farm roads. Hopefully this will make the pavement during the marathon feel super smooth and responsive. Ran back home from Potter ln as a cool-down. Kind of a weird work-out, but I liked it. 4.24 warm-up, 2 miles in 12:35 (6:17 pace), 1.5 in 9:27 (6:18 pace), 1 mile in 6:13, .75 in 4:40, (6:14 pace) .50 in 3:06 (6:12 pace), .25 in 1:31 (6:04 pace), Total of 12.15 miles for the workout in 1:24:59, avg. 6:59 per mile 4.28 cool-down
