Interval Wednesday

This afternoon I completed my interval training for the week, and for the first time I did 4x800, rather than 3x800. In other words I ran 4 fast half miles during my run. Fast being, just a bit better than my race pace.

Todays run:

Warm up (1 mile) - average pace of 10:38 m/m

Interval 1 (1/2 mile) - average pace of 7:42 m/m

Rest 1 (1/4 mile) - average pace of 10:36 m/m

Interval 2 (1/2 mile) - average pace of 7:44 m/m

Rest 2 (1/4 mile) - average pace of 10:17 m/m

Interval 3 (1/2 mile) - average pace of 7:32 m/m

Rest 3 (1/4 mile) - average pace of 10:40 m/m

Interval 4 (1/2 mile) - average pace of 7:32 m/m

Cool down (1.25 mile) - average pace of 10:21 m/m

Totals 5 miles in 46:59 at an average pace of 9:20 m/m

If I am feeling well tomorrow morning I will be going out for a nice easy run. Right now my legs are feeling todays run.

Also this evening I got in 250 crunches and about 10 minutes of leg and ab exercises with the stability ball.
