I held back and just kept pace.

Tuesday, 7/28-

Went to WC Henderson at 5:35 AM to join the other "crazies" for the second week in a row!

On tap was mile at tempo pace (10M pace), followed by a 600m jog, followed by an "all-out" 800 meters, followed by a 200 meter walk, a 600 meter jog, and 3x300 (with a 300 meter jog between each).

I took the mile easy, hanging back with John Lavin (?).  Just when I was about to pass him on the second lap, he said the mile was supposed to be tempo for 10 miles, not 5K or even 10K.  After all, the guys in the lead pack were moving at a pretty good clip.  I held back and just kept pace.

mile: 1:27, 2:58, 4:29, 5:59.
800 meters: 66, 2:19.   This was as close to an 800 race as I have had in just over a year!
300s: ssslllooowww--62, 61, 52.
