3/8/11 (Tuesday) Run

I ran 6 miles in 41:18 today.  For today's assignment I did 12X400 meters intervals with a one minute recovery jog between each interval.  I did the first 11 intervals at 10.1 mph (5:56 min/mile pace) and the last one at 10.3 mph (5:48 min/mile pace).  This was a difficult workout.  While I knew I could do the intervals that fast, I wasn't sure about only having one minute of recovery time in-between each interval.  When I had done this previously without this training plan, I had done only 6-8 intervals with a two minute recovery time.  I was successful and felt really good about the run.
