have to catch up on some logging, been busy and lazy. had workout on the track. we were doing mile repeats pretty much, only they were to be paced kind of differently. the first 400 was supposed to be slightly faster than 5k race pace, the next 800 at race pace, and the last 400 again at slightly faster than race pace. it was kind of weird, but it is essentially how i used to run a mile race back in the day. out hard, slow down, finish hard. here's the splits for each of my 400's. i was without my watch, so i got times from david who was running a little in front of me.
72, 76, 75, 71 --> 4:53
73, 76, 76, 73 --> 4:58
72, 77, 76, 74 --> 4:59
it went pretty well. i was kind of tired and the wind was definitely a factor in this. my knee was okay. its kind of just there, but its going to be something i just push through. i don't think i could have gone much faster, so as long as i can ignore it with the mental aspect of things, its not slowing me down. it definitely got colder as the day went on, as it was beautiful all afternoon, and got cloudy by the time i was cooling down. the first one was probably a little fast on the quicker sections. still held on well.
