Short an sweet...

well, maybe not sweet. Let's say short and intense. I was at the track this morning at 6:00am! I met up with Brian Prendergast to run his workout with him. The plan was to do 400/400, @ 78/93. Sound painful? It was. We were a little erratic with the splits, but at 6 o'clock in the morning, I don't expect to be right on pace. After a short warm up and some strides, we went 75/100, 77/95, 76/107, 78/112. We were generous with those last two recoveries, but necessarily so. Hitting 4 400's at an average pace @ 77 with such short recovery was a workout. So that 2 miles was done in 12:03. Another mile or so to cool down and we'll call it 5 for the day, and done well before 7:00. Now some breakfast and a full day of painting (the weather forced a delay yesterday.)
