5 pax (Moses, Primo, Perrier, Beetlejuice & YHC) left the comfort of their warm cars and heated seats to embrace the suck of a very cold #TheStandard. In order to finish our full workout today, the 5 worked in a 2 mile warm-up and a 1600m sprint. Then, they moseyed to the parking lot to welcome and round-up the remaining 4 for the official kickoff of this week's Halflife:

400m warmup
1 x 800m sprint – 400m recovery

Moleskin:
1) Welcome to Lettuce Wraps father, Polaris! Namings at Half-Life are rare. Great background story.
2) The 400m sprint followed by the 200m recovery followed by the 1600m sprint was no joke. First time I've seen somebody merlot at a workout in a long time. Way to leave it on the field, Beetlejuice!
3) Great push by everybody this morning. Intervals are painful. Hopefully you can tell a difference if you've been coming most weeks – the shorter intervals definitely feel like they're getting easier.
Until next time…
