moderate level workout.

Fri, 8/28-had planned to do an easy run at 6AM, but work got in the way.7

Thurs, 8/27-
I made way back to Westtown School's track for a little inspiration.  I went to my go-to workout--Sit 'n Kick. I REALLY modified it this time.

Typically, Sit 'n Kick Reps as designed for a 2:00 800m high school runner is as follows: 5x (400m @ 64 . . . rest 30-sec . . . 200m @ 28) jog 1200m btw sets.  Since I am not in this shape and the Runners' Pentathalon is right around the corner, I modified the workout accordingly.  I planned to cut things in half: 5 x (200 @ 31, 30 seconds' rest, 100 @ 14).  Depending on where I started and ended each run, my jog between sets would be 500 or 600 meters (in 4:00-4:45).  My runs on this 70-degree early morning were as follows:

32-low, 15-low
31-high, 15-low
31-low, 14-high
30-high, 14-mid
30-low, 14-low

I was pretty pleased with this moderate level workout.
