Decided to do a little faux sprinting with the UMass sprint coming up next weekend. No map, pretty much just a fartlek sort of run around campus - visualizing some random campus locations two controls ahead while executing. Ran into a couple gotchas when I encountered construction fencing in a few areas I wasn't expecting, but for the most part I was just running on mixed surfaces, with frequent changes of direction, zig-zags around walls and other objects, stairs, ramps etc. Then over to the track for my 3km.
Run - Track tempo (3km Time Trial) 11:52 [5] 3.0 km (3:57 / km)

Legs still a bit tired from yesterday, but I wanted to do the 3km to see where I stood and didn't do it Saturday. So woke up this AM and decided that's what I would do, with a bit of campus sprinting as a warmup. Tough to really push on tired legs and running solo - no rabbits...
