The plan was to do a little speed this morning, so I warmed up for a 1.5 miles and then started the speed work. The plan was to do 3x800 with an 800 rest in between each one, I wanted to be around 3:30 for all three. The splits went like this: 3:30 Pace 7:01(150), 3:32 pace 7:04(159), 3:30 Pace 7:00(160), my rest time was about the same on each one (4:38). I then ran out past the stake center for a 2 mile cool down, total time 55:38 with my average pace at 8:32 with my HR average at 146. I felt okay for the most part but I would like to eventually get up to about 10 of these by the end of the summer so I will take it slow and build up once a month and try and add one each time I do the work out. After the run I did my upper body weight training and some push-ups. See ya tomorrow.
