Speed Workouts
Long Distance Runners
400m 1:35.2 to 1:40.7 – 9.44 mph to 8.93 mph
800m 3:18.9 to 3:28.2 – 9.04 mph to 8.64 mph
1200m 5:05.8 to 5:21.3 – 8.64 mph to 8.33 mph
1600m 6:56.4 to 7:11.7 – 8.64 mph to 8.33 mph

I’m going to be working with intervals at the 400/800/1200/1600m distances, just to motivate me to do something different.

  • Never been so disappointed in a sub-3 hour 20 mile long run #running #twit2fit I tried to repeat the workout that I pulled off last week--5-4-3-2-1 @ MP on a long run.  Last week, that run made me feel that I had a shot at 3:20 for a marathon.  This week, my run made me feel I would struggle to hit my PR.  While......

  • Running streak? Day 2. #twit2fit 2.5 miles in 24'15". Ok, so I've been cleared to run, but last vacation last week brought about a number of factors that made it hard to actually do so.  It really pained me to be at the beach (Gulf Shores) and not be able to run from Gulf Shores......
