5 x Pump Station Hill
68, 69, 70, 69, 69.
Temps around 30. A beautiful late winter morning with hints of spring in the air. No real physical complaints at the moment--just haven't been doing much quality, and I sure felt it today.

Cool morning, started just before dawn. That first aerobic workout in chilly weather always gets me: teeth aching, lungs busting, everything working a little harder. Didn't help that I had been off the track for a while.
2:06, 2:13, 2:09, 2:09, 2:09, 2:05.
I forget to write up times from the recent local 3 mile road race: did an 18:30, good for 19th place or so. I was somewhere in the middle of a GI bug that had been turning me inside out for the last few days, but I rallied a bit and felt better during the race.
Hill Repeats. Cool and very beautiful early fall day.
8x Pump Station Hill, from vehicle gate, to corner of pump house: 70s, 73s, 73s, 73s, 74s, 74s, 73s 70s.
I'm feeling a bit more spry lately. I think having the kiddo has helped, as there is less time for sitting.
Leary Field is finally open! Beautiful, brand new track. Huge upgrade from the Brandeis track, which it doesn't seem like they're really maintaining/using anymore. Weather was cool and misty, around 60, with a light breeze.
10x400 at sub-5k pace, with 200 jog recovery: 82,82,84,82,82,81,82,83,83,80.
Ideal conditions today (cool, no wind). Although there was junk on lanes 1+2 in the back straight.
7x600 with 200 jog recovery:
2:02, 2:08, 2:07, 2:05, 2:03, 2:04, 2:02
I thought I had gone too hard on that first one, but was gratifying to see my times come down as I warmed into the workout.
