Saturday, 12/3-- I decided to do 200s. Ideally, it would have been the "Increasing speed/decreasing recovery reps" workout of 5x (4x200m) @ 33-32-31-30-29 w/50-45-40-35-30 sec interval by set (no additional recovery between sets!!). However, in light of my fractured toe (turf toe) from the Thanksgiving Day football game and conditioning, I did not complete the workout as designed (above). Instead, I chunked the 20 200s into 5 sets of 4, each faster than the previous, with a more generous rest between each repeat and set. This meant I jogged 100m between each repeat, taking 50 seconds' rest, and jogged 300m between each set, taking a rest time of 2:30-2:45. I confess that I took 5:00 before the last set, as I wanted to run 30s for the 200s. My runs were as follows:
Set 1 (goal pace 35): 35,36,35,35
Set 2 (goal pace 34): 34,34,34,34
Set 3 (goal pace 33): 32,33,33,33
Set 4 (goal pace 32): 32,33,32,32
Set 5 (goal pace 30): 30,30,31,30
