Notes

Ran down to the track at Memorial Park for a tempo and a couple 400s. I forgot how ghetto this track is...the surface is made out of road material, there's some repaved parts of the track, it's probably anywhere from 2-4 lanes wide on some parts and the curves are super short. I was a little bit nervous it wasn't accurate, but I ran here in August 2010, and had trouble breaking 5:20 for repeat miles, so I think it's at least 400m, maybe a 1/4 mile.

The plan was to keep it under control and run sub 5:15, 5:10, 5:05, 5:00. I felt rusty at the beginning but things got better and the last mile wasn't very hard.

I was going to run 4x200m with 200m jog afterward, but I had no idea how to do that because there were no markers, so I ran 2x400m with 400m jog instead. The 400s felt hard.

TImes: 5:15, 5:08, 5:03, 4:53 and 64.58 and 63.24. Pretty windy all-around.
