June 5 - 5.5 Miles on the Track

I had to drop Shea off early at school for a class trip to Boston so I went down the road to the high school for a track workout.  It was another day of running that started off slow but improved after I warmed up.  The workout consisted of the following:

1600m x 1
1) 6:29 (6:23/mi)

800m x 2
1) 3:05 (5:59/mi)
2) 2:54 (5:41/mi)

400m x 4
1) 1:24 (5:31/mi)
2) 1:24 (5:32/mi)
3) 1:23 (5:25/mi)
4) 1:17 (4:58/mi)

The last quarter mile felt great!  It was a cool morning, which made it comfortable later in the workout.  I felt strong and pushed it down the stretch.

The hard running covered 3 miles, with a 1.25 mile warm up, 0.75 miles total between the hard running and a 0.5 mile cool down for a total of 5.5 miles.  The workout took me through miles 617-622 (unsponsored).  I'd be happy to go back an edit any of these "(unsponsored)" parenthetical references if anyone is so inclined...just sayin'...
