Notes
3x600 @ 1500 GP w/ full recovery; 9x300 cutdowns w/ 100m walk jog (3 @ 5k GP/ 3 @ 3k GP / 3 @ 1500 GP - 1)
Shooting for 1:36 for the 600s, 54 --> 47 for the 300s. YEOW!
Thankfully the Pembroke team had shoveled out 3 lanes of the track, so I got to spike up and run along with probably 50-60 high schoolers who were all on the track doing a fartlek at the same time. It actually wasn't an issue, except for the first one where I had to do some serious ducking and weaving. Started the workout off with a BANG with a 1:34.6 600, which like I said was in serious traffic for the second half of it - it was probably worth a 1:33-low. As is, 1:34 was already under 800m PR pace so it certainly set the stage for a tough workout. I was pretty liberal on the rest for the whole thing, took 6-7 minutes for the 600s and 75->100 seconds for the 300s. The 600s pretty uniformly were tough, and the last couple 300s also were a pretty max effort. Very hard workout for sure, but pretty happy with how it turned out going at it on my lonesome. I was very nervous that I wouldn't be able to hit the paces but I'd say I more or less did fine. On to the next one.
