ITP 2008 Session 1

So for my Wednesday run I had my first workout with the Interval Training program (I did the program two years ago, a high point of my running summer). Coach Cindy Carlyle is fantastic; apparently she is also quite a competitor in the triathalon world.

The day was a 2 mile warmup, supervised stretching (which my shoulder prevented me from doing enthusiastically), 2 training 400s, a "best mile", and then 2 to 4 400s at the best mile/4 pace with equal minutes of rest. Then a cool down lap or so. Temp was about 95F with moderate humidity still leftover from the heat wave. A great workout.

My mile time was 7:40:45 - not as speedy as I might like given it was a single mile, but not disreputable either.
