1:00:00 :: 8 miles (6x800)

Workout. Went incredibly well. Felt very easy, relaxed, and strong. A couple were slightly faster than I wanted, but nothing to cause problems. Mystery Coach was looking for 2:27-2:30--a good rhythm, but not too fast. If I screwed it up, he assured me that I'd have to do it over tomorrow...

Just kidding.

Fifteen minute warmup and fifteen minute cooldown for 4.2 miles.

2:29.4(162-:44) | 2:26.5(159-:46)
2:27.7(161-:??) | 2:29.7(160-:48)
2:27.0(160-:51) | 2:35.0(160-:46)

A couple of notes--the third rep I forgot to check my 120 recovery, so I finally hit the button at 106, at :59 seconds. Based on the other reps, it's safe to say it was in the same :46-:50 range. On the last rep, the watch didn't record .50 miles until about 30m past the finish line for all the others. Based on the way it felt, the HR, and the recovery time, I would say this was in the same time range as the others, and that something happened with the GPS. All that matters is that the reps were consistent in effort, if not in time. I didn't look at my watch until the last few meters before the finish, so I was really trying to gauge the effort off the body rather than split times. I guess my internal clock was off. Maybe I need the Daylight Savings Time patch.
