I had planned on a speed session earlier in the week but that didn't pan out. Instead, I did a stairwell workout on Tuesday. Though these functional training workouts are excellent, I was craving a nice fast running session. So when I found out that the Nitros had planned a speed training day at SDAT today, it sounded perfect. I am joining them after what feels like eternity. As always, it was nice to run with company and it was even nicer to run on the track.
Did 6 laps of 400 meters around the track with about a minute RI between laps. Target time was 2:00. The first lap was inconsistent. I was running too fast and was sure I would't be able to sustain 5 more laps at that speed. From the 2nd lap on, I sort of got the rhythm right and managed a steady 2:06, 2:04, 2:01, 2:00 and 1:57. By the end of the session I felt zapped. (But good zapped!)
The SDAT track is a dirt track. My grey shoes were caked brown at the end of the workout. :( Cleaning dirty shoes - now thats the not so fun part.
