Comments:
warm up to the track, then ran to the river to do (half of) a progression run with carly and mariko. it was supposed to start at 6:55 then pick up by 0:10 every 2 miles for 6-10, but we started fast so i'm not sure the progression thing really worked out for me since i stopped at 4 (so it should have been 6:55, 6:55, 6:45, 6:45, but instead was 6:40 pace on average... i wasn't keeping track of the splits, but i know the first 800 was 3:13 and at basically every marker they said "oh, woops, still too fast, sorry" haha), but i suppose it was sort of like an mlk tempo at the beginning of a xc season, so i'm happy with it. i hate tempos so it's good to be forced to do them. i could have gone for a little while longer, but didn't want to push it... so i just stopped and then went to the track to do a mile of thunder and lightening, as the shermanator used to call it. then cooled down back home. this went better than the last time i think... i'll be back next week :)
