5 X 800m

Five 800m intervals on the track in gorgeous weather. Splits were:

3:00
2:47
2:56
2:56
3:20

Really ran out of steam for that last 800!

Had about 3 minutes walking and jogging between each interval.

Quite pleased to get under 2:50 but then at the weekend I spoke to a 14-year-old boy who ran it in 2:20 in a school race without any specific training! Now that is talent.

The training schedule I am following is Hal Higdon's Advanced Half Marathon program (you can Google it.) However I have increased the mileage and intensity a bit for an extra challenge!
