PM: Track in St. Petersburg. Drew and I knocked around the idea of 800s, so I had my heart set on them all day. I was late, so I was thankful for everyone waiting to begin. Workout was: 2 sets of 4x800s with 200m recovery between items and one 400m between the two sets. I ended up adding two extra 800s afterwards with Cory to help him along to get to the ten 800s/5 miles.
Set 1- 2:29, 2:31, 2:30, 2:30
Set 2- 2:30, 2:31, 2:35, 2:33
With/pacing Cory- 2:38, 2:27
Overall, pretty happy with a 2:31 average for them, especially with the short rest. This was an important workout to me, so I'm happy I hit some good times. Good cooldown with Jim, Cory, and Tyler afterwards. I gave Jim my copy of "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer", which I think he will either really enjoy, or find incredible ridiculous. Time will tell... I told him that another famous person makes a cameo in the text, so hopefully Edgar Allen Poe gets him into it.
