1 mile warm up, 7x800, 1/2 mile cool down.  Mark was gone and I didn't want to waste time with recovery laps inbetween but walked around for 1.5 min or so.

I didn't have my watch so I couldn't take my 400 split.  Aubree timed me with her iphone.  It was nice having a running coach at the finish line!

3:19, 3:14, 3:14, 3:16, 3:18, 3:15, 3:18.  

I think this may have been the first time I was sub 3:20 for all splits!  I felt pretty good.  :)

1.520.004.000.000.000.000.005.52

plan - 1.5 mile warm up. 8x800 1.5 mile cool down.

actual-

.5 mile warm up

1. 800   - 1:41, 1:39 (3:20)

2. 1600 - 1:41, 1:39 (3:20); 1:37, 1:37 (3:14); (6:34)

3. 1600 - 1:42, 1:41 (3:23); 1:39, 1:38 (3:17); (6:40)

4. 1600  - 1:47, 1:42 (3:29); 1:46, 1:44 (3:30); (6:59)

5.  800  - 1:46, 1:40 (3:26)

.5 mile cool down

My splits were overall slower than last week.  I started doing mile repeats to save time because I slept in.  My mile splits got progressively slowers esp. the last set.  I'm not sure if it is because we switched directions or I took a bathroom break before the last mile.  Or, if psychologically I ran slower knowing that I was doing mile repeats as opposed to 800s.  I definitley felt a shift in my energy, coordination, and breathing.

Ran a big block- Lone Pine, Lasher, Maple.  Not a great coarse for trying to do tempo/pace.  Lots of lights at each mile, cars ect.  The 3 last pace miles were a little faster because that includes waiting at lights.  Glad we ran though!

9:18 warm up

Kirkway loop + out and back on Kirkway.  Good to get some hill practice.  Beautiful morning!  PA- 8:39.

This is probably the first week in 20 years that I actually ran 6 days in a row.  This is a cause for celebration!!!
