Track workout. Did 2x1600, 4x800, 4x400. 3:00 jog after the 1600s and 400m jog after the 8s and 4s. Originally planned on 3x1600, 3x1K, but with a 10K coming up this weekened decided to shorten the remaining intervals to still get the same volume in but lessen the stress of this workout.
Splits: 5:07, 5:05, 2:34, 2:31, 2:32, 2:31, 70, 69, 69, 67
Probably smart that I modified it. Might've been able to do what I originally planned, but I think that it would've been tough today. The recent high mileage and the marathon-paced long runs make my legs garbage for these faster workouts. Not sure about sub 33 for 10K given what 5:05 pace felt like, but I think mid-33s should be doable. I guess we'll see what happens. I've never raced a 10K before, so really don't have any real expectations for it.
