Tumultuous Tuesday

August 17 2004
Time: 5:30pm
Place MAA gym led by Dorys
Weather mid 20s
humidity factor 6 on 10

How I felt prior. left shin/ankle flaring up sporadically.

Path from Gym around the park up the trail to the start of the 1km loop
On the menu: 4 seven minue pieces at 85% effort (speed that you would be able to maintain for a half hour run) 3 minute rest inbetween each piece.

First lap was completed at: 4:38 Second at 4:51. Don't remember 3rd. Final was at 4:50
There were segments of each lap which seemed reallly difficult and some segments that were too easy. The shin/ankle injury mitigated my speed work. I was last in the field to complete.

How I felt afterward, Good and strong. The hard run allowed my body for find its natural rhythm.

Concern: If only it didn't take an half hour of hard running to get me warmed up.
