Track Workout - 6-5-09

I had to sleep in today. I got in after midnight and I just could not get up at 5:00am to go running. I was also not feeling well - I think I have a cold.

I started feeling better this afternoon and went to the track at 4:00pm. I did a five mile workout (including warm up and cool down).

1 x 800 warm up

6 x 200 (100 recovery) - :54

6 x 300 (200 recovery) - 1:21

4 x 400 (300 recovery) - 1:49

1 x 800 cool down

I stayed on pace for most of the workout:

200 (49, 55, 54, 52, 54, 53)

300 (121, 122, 120, 122, 123, 120)

400 (148, 154, 152, 147)

My legs felt fine, but I was breathing hard and I was tired at the end of the workout. I felt like I had a good feel for the pace. Track workouts are so cool. I always feel like a real runner when I am on the track - now if it was only raining...
