This was my first time ever doing speed work at the track. I've done it on the treadmill but not an actual hs track. It was tough but fun. Now I know what to expect and feel like I can push myself more next time. I didn't want to die out in the end so I was a bit conservative. Plus, it hurts! A Lot when you are pushing yourself to run fast.
First, C and I ran to the track from our house at an easy pace - which is a little over a mile
once at the track we did:
5 - 800m repeats with 2 minutes of recovery in between.
my times were 3:35, 3:36, 3:38, 3:41, 3:37
Then I finished with 1 400m at 1:49
According to McMillian I ran pretty much on target for training, but I would like to 3:28 next week.
We ran home to cool down which was another mile
So roughly 4.75 miles today in about 36 minutes.
