Track night I ran with Jim only tonight. Jeff completed his first marathon on Sunday so was out of commission. Unfortunately Jeff had a tough debut marathon. All his training indicated he would go sub 3 easy, but that first time out is always a learning experience and he ran a 3:13 not BQing which was his primary goal. Still, I think that was a great time for a first marathon. Anyways back to track night. 1 mile warm up 4 x 800 m with 400 m recovery jogs (2:51, 2:50, 2:51, 2:52) We were going to do 6 x 800 but Jim started falling off the pace during the 3rd 800 and really struggled on the fourth, so we decided to call it a night. 3 mile cool down (last 2 by myself at a faster than normal cool down pace averaging around 7 minutes.) Total: 7 miles
