AM: Clearwater over all 3 major bridges with Quint, Cory, and the Drew.  Didn't do as many as I would have liked, but happy I did them,

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.

PM: Treadmill and then gym workout: 5x5 with biceps, back, traps, lats.  Short and quick.  I really think 20 minutes is sufficient for the weight training and I like it since it goes so fast if I know my plan for each set.  Happy I'm (maybe?) back at it.

PM: Fartlek with Cory.  I had actually planned on doing a tempo, but I would've been solo, so this worked out better.  We introduced some body weight activities halfway in to simulate some tough mudder stuff.  Was a fun way to break it up, but man was I tired at the end.

PM: Another 1.75 miles with the group as the rain rolled in.
