Went to the track to do 10 x 200 repeats. My main goals with this workout are to 1) Run each repeat under 45s, and 2) Not get hurt. I'm happy to say I was succesful at each! I seemed to have been pretty locked in on 43s until the last one when I turned on the jets a bit.

Splits: 43, 44, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 41

Did a progression run. Kim joined me for the first couple miles into the wind. My 3 fastest miles were 7:29, 7:23, and 7:13, some of which was slightly downhill and tailwind-aided. Felt pretty good today I quite enjoyed the run.
