early in the morn

Thurs, 10/14-Went to Pingry's track at 6AM to do 6x800 with exactly a 2-min standing rest between efforts.


I thought that I would be able to run 2:50 or better, but after the first one I realized sub 2:50 was too ambitious.

2:57 (87/90)
2:55 (86/89)
2:54 (86/88)
2:53 (85/88)
2:52 (85/87)
2:39 (80/79)

This was tough. I knew it would be, especially on short sleep (Bosley woke me up at 3:00 and I could not get back to sleep. By the time I got back to sleep it was after 4 4:00, and the alarm screamed at 5:00.) But... I made it through. It felt good to do so.

I averaged 8-9 seconds slower than I did in 2013. At least the 2013 workout was on a Saturday, not a weekend and early in the morn.


Back on Sat, 10/12/13-Went to Westtown School's track to do 6x800 with a 2-min rest (100m walk/100m jog). 
I thought that I would be able to run 2:40 or better, but after the first one I realized sub 2:40 was too ambitious.

2:48 (81/87)
2:45 (81/84)
2:46 (82/84)
2:44 (81/83)
2:45 (82/83)
2:32 (75/77)
