Wednesday Workout (4/25)

Great tune-up workout at BCC to get ready for Pike's Peak this weekend.  Scheduled workout was 4 x 800, 2 @ 2;20, 2 @ 2:16, then 4 x 400, 2 @ 66, 2 @ 64.  I was worried about allergies after the warm-up but I took my inhaler and settled into the workout nicely.  We hit 2:20, 2:18, 2:15, 2:16, 66, 63, 62, and 58.  I followed Jason on the last rep and never in my life has a 58 felt so easy.  The workout wasn't hard but the way I felt out there gave me great confidence for Sunday and beyond.

I'll take it easy for the rest of the week to prepare to run fast on Sunday.  Weather permitting, I'd like to run sub-31.
