Objective : 6 x 800 (turned into 3 x 800 / 2 x 400)

Recovery : 400 jog recovery

Keenyans : Me, Greg, Goupil, Boj, and James

Result :

2:15 / 2:17 / 2:12 / 63 / 60

Overview : We wanted to do 6 x 800 but started out too fast. It was necessary to change on the fly to get something good in. I was happy with the workout. I think that Sunday's 25K effort is still lingering deep down and did effect today's session. There was also a dead opossum on one of the turns that we had to hurdle every lap. It was gross. On the cool down I bonked like never before. My face apparently went white and I was swerving back and forth. I did not finish the run. I stumbled to Mark's house and they hooked me up with some chocolate chips and Starbursts. I was greatful. Once Greg came back to pick me up and we headed to Armadillos and got some much need grub. Bonking sucks.

1 x Mile / 2 x 800 / 4 x 400

Objective : 1 x Mile / 2 x 800 / 4 x 400

Recovery : Full distance recovery

Keenyans : Me, Goupil, Brad, Brent, Haley, and Mason

Result :

4:24 / 2:16 / 2:13 / 64 / 66 / 63 / 62

Overview : There was something in the air today. The weather seemed to be perfect. Nice and crisp with completely dry roads. Everyone had a good one. It was good to do the full recovery. It made the efforts a little more intense. Brent PR'ed in his mile effort and finished the workout with style. Goupil gave me a run for my money on the first 250 of the last quarter. It was fun. We hit up Amradillos after and had some good eats. I might do DH Jones this weekend. Not sure yet.

Result :

9:36 / 70 / 69 / 67 / 61

Overview : I am glad to say my Achilles issue is pretty much resolved. I am excited about changing gears and hitting the roads. This Wednesday workout was a good one. Cool to have Mark back in action. He adds an element to the workouts that is motivating. I was most impressed with Greg's last 50 meters in the last 400 effort. He came from behind and closed like a mad man. All three of us finished around 61 seconds. Andy did two x 2 mile and Goup had a solid effort as well. Great day.
