Warmed up with the team, feeling pretty nervous for the workout today, but it turned out to be not nearly as hard as I was expecting. Coach gave us a pace for our 400's (1:31 for me) and told us to do as many as we could with as much recovery time as we wanted. Eeek! But it turned out he meant as many as we could do in a half-hour. No probalo! Justine and I buddied up and started off doing them with 60 sec recovery. We did our first 7 or 8 that way and they were so easy, and too fast to boot . Then we started gradually cutting down our recovery time so we could get more in - we ended up with 13 and a half total. Times were 1:27, 1:28, 1:30, 1:29, 1:28, 1:29, 1:28, 1:28, 1:28, 1:27, 1:26, 1:27, 1:27 and 0:43 for 200m. Not bad at all! It felt really easy and my legs felt surprisingly good. Nice way to end out the week. (K 41.6) (M spike 3.4)
