The Ship of Fools

How can a workout involving nothing but 400 meter repeats hurt so bad?  I know…do a lot of them and do them fast!  At least the weather cooperated and the group was large (ie lots of commiserating).  Way to coach, Al!

The Workout – the aforementioned 400 meter repeats @ RLRF pace
JimiTex/PMTG = 12 (2 sets of 6)
Fast Group = 10 (2 sets of 5)
Fun Group = 8 (2 sets of 4)

Each repeat was separated by a minute and thirty seconds of rest (enough time to walk back to the start).  There was a two minute and thirty second rest between sets (enough time to grab a quick drink).

News – there will be a hill workout on Thursday…a 3 mile tempo run this week following this route:
