800s: Treadmill style. Empty is sometimes good.

Feb 3, 2014-

School Cancelled on account of snow, 4"-6".  It was quite a tough ride to the Y.  Took about 25 minutes, as I was stuck on a hill and had to take a circuitous route.

At any rate, I warmed up a mile, stretched quite a bit, then made my way to the treadmill for 5x800 with 4:00 recovery between repeats.  My target pace was 2:30-ish.

Run 1: setting on 12.5 (4:52 pace)--2:37
Run 2: setting on 12.6 (4:48 pace)--2:35
Run 3: setting on 12.7 (4:44 pace)--2:33
Run 4: setting on 12.8 (4:41 pace)--2:31
Run 5: setting on 12.9 (4:39 pace)--2:29

Good workout.  I was glad I had the entire treadmill area to myself.  In fact, the whole Y was almost empty.  Empty is sometimes good.

Cooled down.
