Warmed up on the trails, then hit the track for an alternating 800 workout. We did 4 continuous miles of 800 fast/800 steady. The fast sections were at a 3:06 target pace, and the steadies were at 3:35 target pace. I think we hit 3:10, 3:04, 3:07, 3:06. That first one was hard to gauge how fast we were going, but we got the hang of it a little better after that. Not that it matters, but it averaged out to 6:38 per mile, which I thought was pretty cool. Had to get to lab right after that so I really only cooled down back to my car in the parking lot, which sucks because I think that workout warranted a good cool down.
