Notes:The workout... 1 mile repeat started at the library and finished at the sidewalk going into the libraries basement and then when I finished off those two I just jogged to the start of the 1/2 mile course and had plenty of time to press in

I think this is as good as it gets for now, I was very pleasently surprised with this workout. I ran strong throughout and figured I was going to be slower than this but no...

I set out in my mind I wanted to do the first mile in 5:30's second 5:20s and the halves in 2:30s and 2:20's, I knew by the end I would be fading a little but in reality I didn't fade much. My last half was a little rough but really kicked it in, in the end to make up for the sluggish start.
