Steve - 2.25

My quads were a bit sore still from Sunday's hill workout. So I decided I wanted to do some 400m intervals where I "cruise" the first 200, and then accelerate the final 200 to run a negative split. I usually go in aiming for a 40/36 or something like that. I was a bit short on time so I decided to slash the recovery. Predictably the times got slightly slower as I went. I don't know where I came up with the idea to do 400m intervals like this, but I sort of like it. I'd prefer to not slow down with each subsequent one though. I guess it's sort of like that Oregon 40/30 workout that I'd like to be able to do for more than 1 lap someday. Next time I run on the track with Luke, I will challenge him to see who can do the most laps of 40/30.

6:09 wup
77(41.8/35.66) 3 min recovery
78(41.2, 37.6) 1:30 recovery
81(42.7, 38.6) 1:30 recovery
82.5(44.2, 38.3)
1 lap cooldown
