sheepishly divided




Aug 8, 2015

Got together with some of my GPTC team members at Radnor HS for an 8 AM workout.   Not quite settled on what we would do, we sheepishly divided into two groups: Bruce and I did one workout, while Chuck K., Duncan and John did another.  The women there, Cheryl, Mary, and Betsy, did their own thing, although technically I advised Betsy on her workout (4 x 600/200).  I almost forgot-- Maureen McCoubrie ran with Bruce and me.

Bruce and I (and Maureen) were to do: 1000, 600, 400, and 200 (After each was a 200 meter walk/rest (4:00)).  My goal was to run the 1000 at 38 seconds per 200 meters, the 600 in 36 seconds per 200, the 400 in 34 seconds per 200, and the 200 in 32.


I got out slow on the 1000, and my pace and effort suffered as a result.  I ran about :39 per 200 meters to end up at 3:15.  The 600 was in :37 per 200, leading to 1:51.  The 400 was in 68, or :34 per 200 meters.  The 200 was in 31.  After a few minutes, I stepped into the fray with Chuck and Duncan, who were still in the midst of their 20x200 campaign.  I ran three 200s (31, 30, 31), before calling it a day.  They would up doing 15, with John stopping at nine.
