Moderate Day
1 mile warm-up
Good pacing day - 4 x 1600 w/800 recoveries
1.5 mile cool-down
I wanted to get in some pace work today, but am still feeling it from a long run saturday and an easy 12 yesterday. I decided to stick with some pace work and keep the recovery a little longer! It worked out well, my pace goal was to get the 4 in around 6 flat, which would be an honest pace but not make me work too hard. I hit 5:56, 5:57, 5:55, 5:53.... with great control. I felt better after the run than I did before, so that is always a good sign of a controlled workout! My goal is to maintain this type of workout and follow a Canova approach that would gradually increase the distance of each interval (and thus total work done) while maintaining the same 6 flat pace.
