I'm looking forward to next week's workout.

Tuesday, 7/21-

After a 9-month hiatus, I returned to the Tuesday morning group for a workout.  It was a little weird being back after all this time.  I got there nice and early so that I could warm up properly.

The workout was a 2-mile tempo, followed by a 400 meter jog/rest, and then 8x200 at about mile pace (with a 200 meter jog recovery).

2-mile tempo: I haven't done one of these in forever.  I was conservative, going through the 800 in 3:23 and the mile in 6:40.  I finished up in 12:50, with my second mile being 6:10.  Not bad, although I was probably a few seconds from being lapped by Ed M., John Manion and others.  Ed hit 2 miles in about 11:30 or so.

200s: After jogging the 400, I stepped into a series of passable 200s: 38,39,39,39,40,39,34.

I had more left in the tank.  It's scary, but I think I'm looking forward to next week's workout.
