Legs were a little stiff today from yesterday's circuit. Ran to the Laub, then warmed up for 30:00 with the team before our speed workout.

First, we did 3x1000's at 85% date pace (GP 4:00 - easy) with 2:30 rest between. Times for those were 3:51, 3:52, 3:53 - a little under, but still easy. Then a 10:00 break. Once got our rest, we did 6x400's at mile goal pace (for me-5:04, GP 1:16). We had 3:30 for each of the reps, so about 2:15 recovery between. Times for those were 1:16, 1:12, 1:13, 1:13, 1:15, 1:12. A bit fast, but I was excited to feel some speed in my legs! Pretty tired out by the end, but they felt awesome. (M 18.3)

After, Aimee and I cooled down 2 miles the long way back to the dorms. Feels like my legs are pretty well juiced, so tomorrow's run should be a nice recovery. And I'll probably be super sore. (DS 14)
