At the tracks #3

Cubberly Fields tracks, 6:30 pm, June 1.

This tracks event was close to what the real one will be like. The tracks #1 was very elementary. Just to get used to how a 400m felt like.
We started off with a 2 lap warm up and stretching.
Coach Char then started us off on the tracks.

Round 1: Run once around the track a little faster than your long run pace. I took 2:10 on this one.
The guys who took under 2 mins were the fast ones and they did their runs by themselves.
Relax for a minute between each round.
Round 2 and 3 were the same and round 1. I took 2:14 and 2:12 on the other 2.
Rounds 4 and 5, run 2 laps non stop at the pace that you can hold. I took 5:06 on one and 4:48 on the next.
I was def slow on the 5:06 pace. I just conserved too much. On the 4:48 one. I was panting, but recovered in less than a minute.
2 more laps of cool down and then stretch and leave.

The mile time try outs will be held this saturday. 4 laps of this track, non stop, at a holdable, slightly higher than your long run pace. Lets see.
