It has been nearly 2 months since my last
workout. With races and ankle issues I haven’t felt good enough to push
it. I decided that this week would be a good time to get back to it with
the 5k championships (downhill!) looming large (May 18).
I headed out to the Methuen Rail Trail
which is not a bad place to do workouts. The quarter mile posts haven’t
been replaced yet but you can see where they will go. I did a 2 mile
warm-up then 6x440 with 440 rest and 2.75 warm-down for a 7 mile day. I
had no goal time for the quarters but was hoping to be somewhere around 85
seconds which would be a 5k pace of about 17:45.
86.0
88.1
86.2
88.0
85.5
84.9
It was a bit breezy and I think one of
the markers is off by a little bit otherwise it seemed like a pretty good
workout. If all goes well I’ll try it again next week and have something
to compare it to.
