The cold weather magic continues…

Today we got to run 12 sets of 200 meters at faster than 5K pace. My 5K pace should be right around 6min per mile, which is a 45 second 200.

Here are my splits:
38.7 .. 40.9 .. 41.0 .. 40.4 .. 40.7 .. 40.2 .. 40.8 .. 39.8 .. 40.8 .. 40.4 .. 39.3 .. 38.2

Let it be known that:
- 38 seconds is a 5:04 min per mile pace
- 41 seconds is a 5:28 min per mile pace

We rocked that workout!

But we still got lapped by Terranova! WOW!

Also, putting the crazy pace into perspective:
2hours and 5minutes for a marathon (like the kenyans run) is under a 5 min pace for 26 miles.
I wouldn’t be able to keep these above paces for more than maybe 2 miles! hahaha

Next up: 20 miles on Saturday!
