Thursday Night at the Races

Today: 4 miles

Week: 21 miles

Workout: 3000 meter race at the Armory, 2 mile cool down

400 meter splits: 84s, 85, 85, 87 (5:42 for 1600 meters), 87, 88, 87, 38 (last 200 meters) Unofficial time 10:43.

My goal was to do 86s (10:45). I probably could have gone a little faster. However, I was behind someone for most of the race, and I didn't want to pass him and have to run on my own.

Big thanks to Kevin who came out to watch my race.

Good Day to Stay Inside with the A/C

Today: 17 miles

Week: 17 miles

Workout: 10.5 miles in Central Park on the bridle path and various pedestrian paths, 6.5 miles w/WSY up West Drive to track, 6x400s with 300 recovery.

I did the 10.5 miles with Bruno and Farbod. We were running just under 7:30/mile. If it wasn't for the shade along the run and the breeze, I probably would have skipped the WSY workout. The weather today was extremely uncomfortable. My 400s averaged in the high 70 second range.

The best part of the workout? The Gatorade that Bruno had waiting for us at the end!
