1,000 METER REPEATS
Once again I got up early to head to base to do 1,000 meter repeats with 60 seconds rest. I was dreading this workout. I told Ben yesterday how I was dreading it because I wanted to do the workout faster than last time (3:04 avg), but last time was really solid and to beat it would take a hurculean effort.
The weather turned out great. It got super foggy halfway through, but that was kind of a nice change of scenary. Also, on the 5th one I looked up and saw a fox about 10 feet in front of me on the pathway. It caught me offguard and I almost came to a complete stop before yelling at the fox and scaring the crap out of it; it immediately took off.
Splits: 3:02.8 3:01.6 3:02.1 3:01.5 3:02.5 3:01.4 3:00.8 2:59.9 2:59.1 2:57.1 (3:00.9 Avg or 4:52-ish pace)
I am super happy with this workout and glad it is over. It definitely wasn't easy. |
