5mi. We don’t get a mile for time assigned often, those are every 5-6 weeks apart. We even less get to do two timed miles in the same workout – that was today. We started with innocent 200m intervals, then a mile at what Paul billed as 80%. I ran with Tom Matese for a quick first 400 and good final 300m. That mile was 5:54. Separated by two 400m intervals and a 200m, we started Mile #2 with the instruction of making it like our final mile at Loggerhead, you know, on A1A at Circle K and heading back. Paul said, “Gun it!” I ran ok for the first 800, kind of alone, and tried to stay quick in the final two laps. I finished about 6 seconds behind the nearest guy ahead of me, he claimed 5:46 so I did 5:52 ish. We finished with two 200m sprints around the track with a 100m recovery in the middle. This whole workout felt good. I need more stretching to support my efforts to run faster each week.
The double mile day.
