Track Workout

Time: 61:15
Distance: 9 miles

Drove to the track on a cloudy morning. Tom allowed me to postpone this workout until today. I actually questioned doing it today b/c the storm front that came in yesterday brought something with it that is driving my allergies crazy. I was sneezing all day at work and my eyes were itchy. W/u 23:36. Did some strides and drills to loosen up.

Target: 5 x 1k, starting at 2:55 and dropping w/ 2:30 rest
Actual: 3 x 1k, 4 x 400, 2 x 200

Hit splits of:
3 x 1k - 2:55.61 (2:30), 2:55.31 (2:30), 2:56.00 (2:31)
4 x 400 - 67.13 (1:30), 65.69 (1:30), 64.45 (1:29), 63.49 (:37)
2 x 200 - 30.57 (:34), 30.05

Had to change it up a bit b/c when the sun came out the humidity increased significantly. I was feeling comfortable through 600m but the wind was hard to predict. It wasn't the greatest of workouts or what I was hoping to do. I felt much smoother running the 400s, much more in control of my stride. C/d 23:37.
