Sound Check
Went out to the track for the last time, probably for the year. "Cruise intervals", kind of like running fast without really trying. Workout was to be 5x1000m w/ 200m recoveries, in 3:27 to 3:23.
Same workout I did just before Boston earlier this year. I said it was like doing a 5k on the installment plan. 3:24; 3:24; 3:22; 3:14 & 3:21. 16:45 for the 5k. Not bad. I read over my blog entry for the workout I did in May and it is eerily similar, both in substance and in mood, to my workout today. And the writing is not bad.
So this morning was a sound check. Make some music and see how everything is working. Legs, head, breathing, shoes, even the weather . . . all check. Volumes are all adjusted and everything sounds good together. Ready to rock.
Plan for Sunday is simple, get into a groove in the 6:05-6:10 zone, and hold it until 20. After 20, there's no point in planning for the unplannable.
