The Joy of the Track Workout
Heavenly pink for this post... so, by now we are all on the same page for track workouts. YAY! For me, the Wednesday 4x1200m assignment got pushed to Thursday 7:30 a.m. Nice and cool, of course. Here are my times: 6:00, 6:07, 6:02, 6:03. No, not bragging. It's for the record AND to point out that I am too slow for the program. At 7:20 min miles, my times should be 1:50x4=5:30. Hmm. Of all the laps I did, my fastest was the first one @ 1:53. Not too far off, but that was only one lap. Since this is my second time doing the week2 workout (Ja, eben), I put this out there for comments... what should I do next week? Go back to the beginning of the program for the third time? Keep going, even though I'm slower than target pace? I'm not sure what the right approach is. Am I too slow because I am doing too much? because breakfast was too recent? because this is my max speed and I'm not willing to detect that? Puzzled.

So I'm going to post this information as a follow on to my track run, but for the record, by using the nifty web page that Sissie found, a 2 minute lap (6 minute 1200m interval) is a 7:33 pace in lane 5. You are as fast as you think you are.
