Did some mile repeats for the first time of the season yesterday. Surprisingly, the were great!

5:54, 5:39, 5:23. Intrasquad is this Saturday then races start next week. I think this is going to be a great last year of HS XC.

Anyone else have an awfully good workout recently in preparation for races?

Nice job! Make sure you keep your mileage up once school and the season starts. Good luck!

Interesting - I usually gauge my interval success at how consistent I can pop off intervals (With the correct effort level of course)

My guess is that you have increased you fitness by a lot and the 1st one was way too slow - The 2nd was probably close and the third was likely an all out effort? My goal was to always keep the fastest / slowest within 5 seconds of each other

Still nice to see the speed and have a great season.
