Today was the infamous 20x400 to finish awesome week. Usual warm up and stuff. Started the first 5 backwards at 5k pace, hit 74's with 45 seconds rest. Then went the normal way. 2 mile pace, hit 68's with 1 min rest. Then current mile pace, hit 66's. 1:30 rest. Then faster than mile pace/whatever you can do and hit 63-64's and 60 for the last one. 2 minutes rest. Legs were definitely tired and heavy afterwards but I was in a lot better shape after the workout than I was last year.
As much I like to sleep in, waking up early and doing the workout makes it feel more legit and then we had breakfast after and it was just one of those days that you look back as one of your favorite days of the year and I'm really gonna miss working hard with the people I love. 2 mile cool down to 9.
