saucony fives. great on tm and sw. since i missed 8 x 800s with kim and jane yesterday at pond i ran at tm so i could say hi to them and so i could wear my sboes that dont bug my feet or back or legs. Ran 3 miles at 8mph (7:30pace) then ran right into sw. 2 800s @ 6:07, 2@6:03, 2@6:00 and 1@5:56 and 1@5:53. Avg pace 3:01. On target for ap of 3:00 for next time. I ran these 800s with incline @1% for first 0.15 miles so when i put it flat i felt like i was going downhill. Ran them with 1/4 mile rest run pace at 8:00 and 1%. The last four i got off tm and hit pause for thirty seconds then would get back on and finish the 1/4 mile rest. It just gave me that added boost. Ran one mile cooldown in 7:15....started real easy ended at mp. Avg pace for all 10 miles was 7:01. Feeling strong. Five pounds of seat lost in very thick nylon shirt. Wash wasnt done past four days so options for clothing was minimal. Heat simulation good for me to do.

I do the same thing on cool down miles. I get bored way to easy with it! Who knows, maybe your old self will stick around a little longer! :-) are you going for 3:06 or 3:00?

That is a very solid workout!
