A few, inadvertently quick, 200m runs!

October 16, Tuesday

 

I hope I did not get ahead of my training today: but it was such a pretty, fall afternoon that I felt very comfortable on the track. After a long warm up and a few strides, I decided to run some 200-meter intervals at 8 minute pace if I could. I ran most of them closer to 7 minute pace hitting about :52 to :54 on average.  I was running very comfortably, and I did try to slow down each time, but the end time remained in the low 50s. I stopped at 7 only out of fear that I might be overdoing it. Those times do seem a little too fast for this moment in my training sequence.  I would like to get back to a few longer runs in the 10 to 11 minute per mile range to continue to build on my base.
