Notes
Maybe I shouldn't have attempted this workout. The plan was to do 6 x 1000 (600) at the same paces I ran for my previous track workout, which was 6 x 800 (400). But I was low on energy after not eating enough two nights earlier and not being able to catch up calorically. In the event, I managed three 1000s almost at the target paces, then did a fourth one that proved I was out of steam, after which I stopped. Afterwards my right biceps femoris hurt in the same way it did at the end of August, so I decided pretty quickly to take the next day entirely off. With the Metric Marathon on Sunday, I should have just run easy after Tuesday, or at most done a moderate run by feel.
