8x800

Todays workout was a rough one. The plan was to get in 8x800 at 2:20 pace. I wanted to start at 2:24 and finish at 2:16. I ended up starting at 2:19 and finishing at 2:18. I was expecting the workout to be a lot easier than it was but I guess I cant complain since I hit the average I wanted to hit and I put in the effort that I wanted to put in.

My splits were: 219/222/220/221/220/221/220/218 for an avg of 2:20

I took 300 rest for the first few and then I took a little over 3 minutes after the 4th to switch into spikes earlier than I had planned to. The last few I just took 1:45-1:50 recovery(which was about how long it took me during my 300 jog).

I still need to get an easy run later on and tomorrow will be an extremely easy recovery day. Saturday will hopefully be a long run and Sunday will be like a typical Monday with strides.
