5K race track workout (Read 82 times)

The workout went well. The pace is not hard but the workout is a good challenge because of the relatively short recoveries. I like the challenge of the 200m efforts at the end, which feel hard because of the fatigue, but are short. It's nice to put in some 90% sprint work, I used to do much more of that til last year when, following the advice of this board, increased my weekly miles and dropped from 2 hard days a week, which always included one sprint-ish workout, to 1, which I alternate track and road tempo.

I don't know if I'm literally in 7:20 5k shape but the training last night felt good, so I'll go with it for now.
