6/28/11 Track Workout

Objective: 10 x 400m @ 78 seconds

Recovery: Equal distance jog

Warm-up/Cooldown: 3 mile warm-up included 2.5 miles of easy running + strides. Cooldown was 2 miles of easy running.

Outcome: 71, 80, 78, 76, 79, 79, 78, 78, 78, 77

Comments: Wildly inconsistent. I can't believe I ran a 71 to start this workout, then followed that up with an 80! It seemed like once I got some lactic acid flowing through my legs I was hitting more consistent splits.

Comments: It was a good first workout to get my legs turning over and running fast again. The only time this got tough was the last 400m repeat, otherwise it felt very simple. I have been dealing with some type of head/chest cold for the past several days which was fun to run with today. Overall, a good start and I am pleased that I was able to run this stronger and faster than I had projected.
