We warmed up by running to the School for the Deaf track. Then it was four repeats of 1 lap (400) at 5K pace followed by 1\/2 lap recovery, two repeats of 2 laps (800) at 10K pace followed by 1 lap recovery, and ending with four repeats of 1 lap at 5K pace followed by 1\/2 lap recovery. I timed byself with my watch. My four 400s were 1:45.70, 1:53.39, 1:52.62, and 1:51.34. My 2 800s were 4:08.38, and 3:56.63. My four 400s were 1:47.62, 1:53.52, 1:51.75, and 1:51.00. Working this out and averaging the various results means that my mile is 7:23 for the 5K and 8:05 for the 10K. The 10K race this weekend with be insightful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
