Back to the Track #4

After skipping a couple days of running due to work getting in the way, this evening was track time.  The plan was 5x1,200 meters, with a short 90 second rest between each.  Goal time was 4:41, which is 6:17 pace.  So a little slower than the 800s I did the week before, but obviously it's 3 laps instead of 2.

• #1 was 4:39 and felt OK
• #2 was 4:38 and felt OK too
• #3 was a little tougher but came in at 4:37
• #4 was not too bad and was 4:36
• #5 went out fast in 1:27 and decided to keep going, ran a 4:29

Average of 4:36 and each was getting faster - very happy with that.  Personally I find these easier than the 800s, even with the shorter rest.  I think the difference between 6:00 pace and 6:15 is pretty key for me right now.  

That's my last track workout before the Kaiser half when I will get my first real test of how much of my fitness has returned.
