800 Repeats Again!!!

As if yesterday's workout wasn't enough, I did 800 repeats again.  But today, they included Cat Hill.  No more speed workouts for this week!

800m Repeats

Yesterday was quite possibly the worst weather I've experienced this summer.  (I missed a few days of the last heat wave because I was in Oregon.)  I really didn't pay much attention to my splits.  I just wanted to get the workout over with.  But here are the splits anyway.  2:55, 2:45, 2:42, 2:42, 2:42, 2:48.  Got a nice surprise and ran into Erika right before the workout.

800 Meter Intervals

Today: 5.5 miles

Week: 14 miles

Workout: 6 x 800 meters with 90 seconds recovery

The first and second intervals were a little long. The 3rd through the sixth were a little short. 2:59, 3:00, 2:23, 2:22, 2:20, and 2:30. Legs were dead. I'm surprised I even got through all six.

800 Meter Intervals

Today: 7 miles

Week: 32.5 miles

Workout: Niketown - 85th St. & E. Dr. 4x800m repeats from 85th to 95th, recover back to 85th.

Ran at a comfortable pace in a group, about 7:45 - 8:00/mile. Legs were sore from yesterday's mile repeats.
