16 laps is starting to feel alarmingly normal

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
I'm finally adjusting to the idea of running 16 laps on an indoor track just as the winter season is ending. After the Boston Marathon (which I'm not running in) the BAA will move their practices outdoors. Actually, the psychological adjustment has not only been the number of laps but the sheer length of the intervals: 1 and 2 miles. I've made my peace and actually look forward to the consistency of it, even if the pace this week left me straining and out of breath for much of the time.

3200: 11:25 (5:45 and 5:40)
1600: 5:35
800: 2:43 (5:26 pace)
800: 2:33 (5:06 pace)
