AT Tempo Intervals. Wanting to poke at AT system and will use the track to save wear and tear on fatigued legs. Cover the 15:00ish minute trip over at an 8:49 average pace. Two laps of surges on the straights. Walked the recoveries on the first one, and jogged them on the second.

Workout will be 2 x 5 outside lane laps + finish the straight with a 1 lap jog recovery:

9:52 minutes @ 7:02 average pace.

2:38 minutes @ 9:00 average pace.

9:59 minutes @ 7:09 average pace.

Ran the first two laps too fast. In fact, was topping out at 6:30ish on the straights. Air muggy and over pollinated. Making it difficult to monitor effort any with breathing. Got it back under control, and entire second tempo interval was pretty much spot on. Overall, including the jog, 22+ minutes at 7:16 average pace got today's job done.

Finish with a 15:00ish minute trip back to the house at 8:52 average pace. One penny.
