Today was intervals. Third hard workout in a row, but considering my past two workouts it went amazing. I warmed up a mile or so and started with a 600 at 2 mile pace. I don't whether it was the fact we started with the mile guys or just I was finally recovering from that shot. Either way I went out hard and hit 400 at 71 to 72 and finished with a 1:48. And we had a serious backstretch wind the whole time. The next two where 500's. 1:28 and a 1:29. The end of the last 500 is where the pain started to set in, but its really no surprise because it was 9:20 pace. The last three were 400's. I nailed the first one in a high 1:10. So the pace was still really consistant. The last two where hard, Really hard. I had other 2 milers try to hang with me but I held on and dropped the pace a little to a high 1:08. It hurt... a lot, I still had some left though. The final 4 was fantastic. At 200 I gave up feeling and killed it. If I've ever given a workout everything it was this one. The workout killed me and then I killed it. The final 400 was a 1:07. I hit a little over 9:20 pace. After I got in another couple miles to bring it up to 10 and added a short weight session. My seasons starting to finally look up. These intervals have gotten gradually faster. Two weeks ago it was sub 10 pace. Then it was 9:45, and now 9:20. I can't wait to see what I can do on fresh legs Saturday in the 2. 600: 1:48 2x500: 1:28, 1:29 3x400: 1:10, 1:08, 1:07
