Ran with Josse, Sasha, Jeff and Michelle in the morning. Was planning on just doing a run on my own to get back into it this week after my brutal/taxing run on Saturday. Definitely wasn't planning on doing mile repeats. Well, I didn't have the heart to wuss out on a good interval workout, especially with that crew. Sasha asked who wanted to be "pulled" and pulls out this funky bungee contraption. I got very scared, acted like I didn't hear him, and started walking away. Luckily Josse volunteered without too much coercion and I was safe. Turns out it was a good workout for both of them, but as we all ran along, I couldn't help but imagine that we looked like a running ringling bros. circus as we passed bikers/walkers. Josse even got a good chuckle as she was pulled along. We did 400m rest in between each repeat and did 5:48, 5:49, 5:45, 5:46, 5:43, 5:42. Thanks to all for a good workout and for the pacing help.
Ran 4.50 later while lindsay pulled the girls with the bike. 7:07 average pace. |
