Stranger In A Strange Land

After a two week absence from repeats it was back on the horse today and I for one couldn't have been happier!
Why I didn't go straight to Lower Merion High School I don't know,St Joe's is nearer but it seems whenever I go there I crap out,today was no different,they're relaying the track so who knows how long that'll take,but if I have to do repeats on a Saturday from here on in LMHS it is,and besides I always seem to do well on that track anyway.
Today's bill o fare:2x150m,6x400m,2x150m.
The opening set of 150s were set at 25 seconds I went:22.05.-22.83.
I wasn't surprized that I came out of the traps fast,you figure my last repeats were Sun May10th.
6x400m,for some reason I thought it was 4x400 untill I doubled checked my list prior to to the workout,the pace was 70-65 seconds I went:64.13-67.44-67.17-67.66-69.06-61.98.
Where did that final 400m in 61.98.come from?easy I visualized the final lap of the 800m final in Lahti in just under 10 weeks time.
The target time on my final 2x150s was 22-21 seconds I went:23.78-22.83.
I'm not gonna front I was feeling a little rubber legged after those 400s but all in all a good workout,we'll see if Dib thinks so and also what he has in store for me next.

Glad to see you're back on the track. How much recovery did you have between repeats and sets?
