Great workout! Makes me tired reading it. Are you in STG this year? If so, I am thinking something crazy fast for you. Keep up the awesome miles.

You're so hardcore!!!

From JohnnyV on Tue, Jun 02, 2009 at 13:06:58 from 204.124.13.151

I thought you were running Utah Valley. Shouldn't you be on a taper?

From MrsFIT on Tue, Jun 02, 2009 at 14:30:44 from 205.127.70.66

WOW.....that's all I can say!

From kelli on Tue, Jun 02, 2009 at 16:26:30 from 71.219.83.192

You were very consistent today! Good job. How did you get all of the splits? Did you hit the lap button each time?

From RAD on Tue, Jun 02, 2009 at 16:38:40 from 67.166.99.8

Nice work Walter!! Once when we were jogging a recovery together I decided I was going to try to keep up with you as long as I could...too bad my 'fast' started and ended before yours did. Maybe next time :)

It is amazing to look at your splits and see you last 400 at nearly the same push as the first! I need to learn how to run with that kind of push and consistancy - I always bonk on speed work by the end!
