So tonight, it's back to the track. I'm going to leave work a little early (let's be honest, I haven't really been working that hard today anyway) and get some 800's in. For most of August and September, I was doing a really simple workout - run 1.3 miles from the office to the track, do 4x800 (with 400 rest intervals), and then run back to the office. I walked my rest intervals. I'm thinking maybe I should step it up a little. So I might add another 800, and try to jog instead of walk for my rest intervals. I'm worried about my workout taking too long, so I thought about driving to the track and doing a warm up there, but I really love my runs down the Main Street of our little metropolis here. All my friends honk at me as they're leaving work, which is like having built-in cheerleaders!
Also, figured I should get around to posting last week's training recap before I get too far behind:
- Sunday, Oct. 19th- 4.5 miles
- Monday, Oct. 20th - 3 miles (a.m.), 3 miles (p.m.)
- Tuesday, Oct. 21st - 5 miles
- Wednesday, Oct. 22nd - 2 miles
- Thursday, Oct. 23rd - 3 miles
- Friday, Oct. 24th - 3 miles
- Saturday, Oct. 25th - 5K race
Total weekly miles: 26.6

You look like you are all set to break 25:00. Good luck! Way to go on stepping it up.
Nice job on last weeks workouts. All the speed work will help bring your times down. I think it is pretty cool that you can run from work to the track.
You're sooo close to breaking 25! Keep up the speedwok and I'm SURE you'll do it! ;D
You're running every day?! Wow!
I wish I had a track nearby...I don't know of any but would like to try a track workout one of these days.
I think you're gonna kill the 5K!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! You can totally break 25 minutes. I did Yasso 800's this summer and they seemed to help alot.
