To the Harvard track. Easy pace.

Some more warmup, including strides (which were after the form exercises.)

Some stretching and running form exercises.

CSU intervals. The plan today was "Death Spiral Lite" or

1200 @ 8K pace
800 @ 5K pace
400 @ 3K pace
800 @ 5K pace
1200 @ 5K pace
1600 @ 5-8K pace

While I felt crappy on the warmup, the intervals were at least OK, or the first three were OK. There, I kind of stuck off the tail of the lead group. On the last three, after 1.5 laps, I felt like I started to fade. I really think Terry runs negative splits. I am going to have to check this.

Average laps were:
1) 80.67
2) 79.50
3) 75.00
4) 80.00
5) 84.67
6) 87.00

So, the data says I really did start to fade, but only really on the last two.

A little cooldown there and the rest on the way home. Dark.

Incidentally, the Penncrest HS track is a much better place to do workouts than the Harvard track for several reasons:

Better surface
Lit at night during the winter
Very few other people using it
TNT dinners afterward
