Happy on the track

I did a really good track workout today. I’m just so damned pleased and impressed with myself that I can’t stop me from obnoxiously posting about it. The session:

  1. Warmup run to the track (~2.5 miles)
  2. Assigned work: four cutdown intervals with 3 min jog rests. Goal times (paces):
    • 1600 in 6:40 (6:40)
    • 1200 in 4:55 (6:36)
    • 800 in 3:10 (6:20)
    • 400 in 1:30 (6:00)
  3. A couple miles cooldown on the track, followed by 1.75 mile run home.
  4. Tea and sandwich.
  5. Full workday sans lassitude.

Actual times (paces):

  • 1600 in 6:33 (6:33)
  • 1200 in 4:43 (6:20)
  • 800 in 3:05 (6:12)
  • 400 in 1:25 (5:42)

I was not running too hard. Also, it was windy today.

Hee.
