about a second faster per effort on average

Wed, 5/29/24-

At 6:20am, I headed to the track for 3x400. The goal was to approximate the pace of the first lap of my 800m race. For me, I wanted to hit 62-high/63-low. The rest would be a generous 10 min.

First effort: 62-mid

Second effort: 63-low

Third effort: 62-mid

My goal 800m race would have me run 63 for the first 400 and 67 for the second 400...for a time of 2:10.

When I did this workout three weeks ago, I managed 63-mid, 64-mid, and 62-low. Today's effort was about a second faster per effort on average.
