Chilly out - I finally broke out my winter gear! 'Twas odd to go for such a short run (River Rd. chapel), ran a comfortable 7:41 first mile, then picked it up a titch for a 7:10 for the way back. Legs felt really fresh and nice with the exception of some knee issues after the first 3/4 mi. Today I ran my last morning workout of this season! Thank goodness, since it's getting so freaking cold outside... (Alchemy 202.4)

Had to hurry to be done w/ afternoon practice by 3:45, ran 1200m warmup, then did 3x800m repeats:
1- 2:32 - felt pretty good and fast, this is my fastest time ever on the 800m grass loop, so that was fun to do. But oh, the burn of the lungs!
2- 2:36 - they went downhill (in a bad way) from here, gave it all I had, but didn't get a better time. Yuk. Legs joined the lungs in the burningfulness.
3- 2:39 - really felt like I pushed lots harder and got about the same time as the previous one, but I was pretty disappointed to find out it was slower (again). Holt did notice, however, that this was one second slower than my freshman track PR in the 800m so I have definitely improved a TON since then!
Cooled down 1200m, my calves were so tired and burning and cramping, I was going SO slow. Felt like I got a pretty good workout, the legs-running-out-of-juice and throat-burning feeling of going really fast reminded my of TRACK! (DST 241.5)
