Met up with Jose and Steve in Merrimac for 2 mile repeats on the Toys for Tots course. Originally planned 3-4 x 2 mile at 5:15/mile. Warmed up over the course and then a little extra. Pit stop, one hard stride, lost the jacket and then we were off and rolling. After the second repeat, we were all feeling it pretty good. I went with the crowd and decided just to run one more mile fast and cool it down. Good decision. Right hammy is a little mad at me now and to grind out another few miles might have been a poor decision. That said, felt awesome out there, under control and smooth.
2.5+ up
2 mile: 10:23 (5:15, 5:08), 1/2 mile recovery
2 mile: 10:18 (5:10, 5:08), 1 mile recovery
1 mile: 4:58
2 down
11 total on the day. Rolled out when I got home and feeling good after breakfast at Al's Diner.
Nice work brotha!
ReplyDeleteThanks dude! Hopefully a good sign for things to come. Do you think you'll be running by Amherst? Would love to see you rocking the WRT singlet again.
