I did the speed workout today, 6X800M workouts with 400M walkins between. Started with a 800M slow jog, some strecthing and that was enough to warm me up.
I did much better on this my second speed workout. My times were 4:11, 4:06, 4:07, 4:10,4:12,4:09. I averaged 8:18 min/mi and I am closing on my target of 8:00 min/mi
I think the walkins rather than just resting helped me feel more relaxed and not sore as I was on the first time I tried this workout.
I also focused on checking my breathing, I attempted to be just a notch above comfort pace, but not too much more. Next time I want to make sure that my hand and leg movements are more natural and free flowing I think I was too conscious this time.
