Interval at the park
August 5 2004 5:30pm
Running group MAA led by Dorys
weather 20 degrees with light breeze.
Who I ran with Mary and Annie
What I ate before: prune
What I drank before: water
Effort 8 on 10
How I felt before slightly tired (legs from yesterdays hill work) but generally in good spirits
Jog to the park from the gym was done at base pace on an uphill slope. Felt good going up the hill not too laboured as I found the proper pace early
The course is a 400 meter loop. The goal 3x3 with a 2 minute rest between sets. Run each of the 9 laps in an even a time as possible.
Dorys ran with us to trick us into running faster. We all fell for it.
First set of three: 1:51, 1:58, 1:55
Second set of three: 1:55, 1:52, 1:57
Third set of three: 1:51, 153, 1:45
How I felt afterward, winded. Quick recovery but legs were tired.
Nice jog back to gym. Minimal effort.
No mosquitos (yay!)
Duration 1 hour
Stretching 10 minutes.
Concerns: Recovery for Sunday long run

I ran 400m (each loop was that distance) 3 times with no break in between. Once that was completed, I took a 2 min break and then repeated the same exercise 2 more times.
Trainer timed each looped and read off the time as I completed the loop.
