~2.5 miles @ ~11.6 min/mi

220-yard repeats (halfway around lane #2 of a 400m track) on a Monday evening descend steadily in pace: 52 ⇒ 48 ⇒ 47 ⇒ 46 ⇒ 46 ⇒ 45 ⇒ 45 ⇒ 45 ⇒ 45 ⇒ 44 seconds. Robin is slower, and I wait 5-10 s for him at the end of each so we can walk together the half lap back to the starting line. But on the final interval despite my best effort he sprints ahead and finishes ~1 s in front, while running in lane #5 and thus going ~10m farther than me — bravo!
