5k (with a really big asterisk)

Event Date

Oct 23, 2018


4 gathered for some speed work. There was a sighting of Spork and Mulligan but they headed off into the dark with blinking lights. 

Warm-up mile around parking lot

Down to the track for:

5 x 1k (400m Recovery Interval jog)  Pace = Target 10k pace less ~45 seconds (ie faster)

Cool down

We “just” ran a 5k… with a mile on the front.. a mile mixed in the middle… and some more on the end for good measure.  About 5.5 miles total. Sonar wasn’t sure he appreciated having his 5k extended.

Hefty joined because “it’s always good to get faster.”  He then proceeded to show everyone what fast was while the rest of us huffed and puffed our way around the track.

Mater made a detour to Circle K after the warm up run but made it back to the track – however me missed the instructions.  Unclear what regimen he followed.

At 39 degrees, Bertha kept his shirt on this week.  The extra drag didn’t seem to slow him down though.

Good to hang with folks on a brisk fall morning.
