Coming into form

Wed, 9/21/16-
Ran easy 5.0M in 38:00 (7:37/mile pace) around the neighborhood: back of driveway, right onto Plumly, right onto Shiloh, right onto Ashley, right onto Stable, right onto Farm, continue onto Rustin HS's campus, loop around and exit at south entrance (Dunning), right onto Shiloh, right into Street Road, left at Goose Creek, ONE counter-clockwise loop around the park, took same route to return to driveway. 

Tues, 9/21/16 
WC Henderson HS--The 5:50 AM workout was 4x800/300 with 200 jog after 800 and 300 jog after 300. 800s were supposed to be at 5K race pace and 300s a bit faster. This meant under 2:50 for the 800s and sub-60 for the 300s. I did 2:49/56; 2:44/54; 2:39/--; 2:35/51. I skipped the third 300.  I may be coming into form, as I stayed within 20 meters of the top group on the first set, just behind the top group for the second set, with them on the third, and near the front on the fourth.  

Similar workout April 2009

  •  I did 2:54/58; 2:57/61; 2:53/66; 2:46/52. I took a little extra break between the 3rd and 4th sets, joining the crew on the second lap of the 800 as my first lap. I did not jog a 300 break between set 3 and 4. I think I am having a crisis of confidence. Now that he hills are over I am struggling a bit on the track. Why is that? I cooled down 1.0 mile. About 6.1 miles

Ran easy 5.0M in 37:50 (7:34/mile pace) in the pouring rain.  I went around the neighborhood: back of driveway, right onto Plumly, right onto Shiloh, right onto Ashley, right onto Stable, right onto Farm, continue onto Rustin HS's campus, loop around and exit at south entrance (Dunning), right onto Shiloh, right into Street Road, left at Goose Creek, ONE counter-clockwise loop around the park, took same route to return to driveway.
