We own this Track

Jul 20, 2016


Today 5 PAX had to share the track at HalfLife with some walkers and other runners.  We simply out-worked and out-sprinted everyone else, strong work by all.  Here's what went down:

0500:  Standard run with Lex and YHC, although we missed each other by about a minute it seems

0530:  Forgot disclaimer!  Sorry.  Here's what we did:

  • 1 mile warm-up
  • 800 meters at about 5k pace
  • 400 meter recovery pace
  • 400 meters fast
  • 200 m recovery
  • 200 fast
  • 200 recovery
  • 1 mile fast
  • 800 recovery
  • 800 fast
  • 400 recovery
  • 400 fast
  • 200 recovery
  • 200 fast
  • Recovery run until time called

Recover, recover.  Everyone ran about 5 miles or more, and with the Standard total distance was 8.28 miles according to my Garmin.  Link below:

Moleskin:

  1. YHC saw this guy on the track at 5:10, almost said "Hey Catfish!"  Lucky I didn't because it wasn't him, it was a couple who were walking / running together.  The real Catfish showed up on time, and dominated today.
  2. Jenny noted how speedy the speed walker was, but he dusted every non F3 person on the track as well.
  3. Professor is on a short list of PAX who can hang with Lex for 200 meters.  Believe they threw down something like 31 seconds on the last iteration, fast!
  4. That same list gets much smaller when we're talking about 800 or 1600 meters.  Lex, you are a beast brother!  Thanks for pushing everyone today.
  5. Thank you Kumquat for the opportunity to lead today.

Fine group today, and really strong work.  Hope to see you all soon.
