Eventually reaching

Sat, 8/18-

I jogged 2M to the canal in Bound Brook for a little action.  This 2M (18:00) would be my warm up.  (The run to the Canal is technically 2.1M, but I cut the route some.)   On this humid morning, my plan was to do some Yasso-style (rest what you run) 800s on the canal strip.  I'd run from the gate entrance to the concrete (800m), and then rest.  I'd walk to the other side of the concrete area and then run from there to 80m beyond the overpass (800m).  I'd rest and go in the opposite direction, eventually reaching the entrance again.  This would be repeated for a total of 8x800 (~4M). My results were:
2:52 (oops)
2:45
2:45
2:44
2:44
2:44
2:47
2:38

I kept to under 3 min of rest.

I jogged back to the complex (18:00).  8 miles today.

I feel okay about this effort, although I owe it 5 seconds per repeat.  At least I made it through the workout this time.
