Coming off of two days of rest and going to test the 2018 Regional Workouts over the next few days, but first testing an 800m TT today.
A.
Warm-up paces:
400 x 1
200 x 2 (increasing pace each interval)
Rest as needed between
B.
800m Run TT
-2:31 (splits were 1:17 and 1:14) ... went out a bit conservative on that first 400, I think I could have made up a little time there. Overall I was shooting for 2:29 today (sub 5 minute mile pace) ... was barely off this pace, hopefully will re-test this in the future and improve. I finished this with a bit of a cough and a little pain in my legs, but frankly I could have pushed it a bit more. I am just not used to giving 100% on the track right now... been doing so many intervals in the 80-90% range, and it much different to actually 'race.' Anyway, the last time I hit an 800 TT was in May of 2016 with a 2:48 ... in the last two years I've shaved off 17 seconds from my 800 time. Overall I have to be happy about that.
