2012-03-27 - Five 800m Repeats

 

~3 miles @ ~8 min/mi

Robin and I visit the Silver Spring International Middle School track on the way to pick up the other kids and dinner. In half an hour Robin jogs a couple of miles and then sprints a final 1:52 lap. I do two-lap intervals with a half-lap recovery walk. Times smoothly descend until the last: 3:31 ⇒ 3:25 ⇒ 3:24 ⇒ 3:23 ⇒ 3:24. Walkers, pram-pushers, soccer kids, and a few other runners occasionally get in the way.
