I decided not to go to the track this morning, but to do a fartlek workout instead. I wanted to work on leg turnover on the roads and generally break things up a bit as the taper begins. I ran from home to the U, where I began the first of ten 2-3 minute surges, followed by 2-3 minutes easy. Ran south along 15th East for a bit, and then turned back north and into Mt. Olivet cemetary where I did several more intervals. Mostly felt strong, a few started to hurt. Tried to keep the pace honest and consistent even as the terrain varied. |
