Overview: Another strong effort that I am happy with. I definitely like workouts with more volume. I just don't have the wheels for shorter, more intense sessions. Andy, Mark, and myself did the above workout. BOJO did some 400's and 200's while Greg did 5 of the 800's with us then did some more intense, top end stuff. James did an 800 workout (and by the looks of it had a really good day). My Dad had his first taste of running in some months but had a good first effort. He did the warm up with us and did some out and backs that totalled his mileage at about 5. I would also like to welcome Mark to the blogoshere. I have a link to his blog on my blog list. I have also just realized that James has one too. It will be interesting to read a different perspective of Wednesday workouts.
