Mirror Mirror

Another 5x1,000m repeat this evening,like that old Monty Python sketch Secret Service"still I was getting used to it by now"!!!!
I'll spare you another of my lyrical waxings on the conditions but they were great,according to the calender fall began today,sadly that means in three months time winter will be upon us,upside w/ winter comes indoor track season,glass very much half full!!!

1,000m#1,1.10,1.17,39-3.06.95.way to ease into things!!!,once again I had to throw the brakes on after a brisk opening lap.
1,000m#2,1.14,1.17,37-3.08.55.remember my 9/11 rain soaked 5x1,000m when I opened in back to back 3.09s?I'm starting to believe that was the beginning of me getting to grips w/ this workout.
1,000m#3,1.16,1.15,37-3.08.08.I felt last week on 1,000m#3 I switched off mentally over the closing 200m and it cost me,no such worries this evening!!!
1,000m#4,1.16,1.19,40-3.15.12.sooner or later I'm gonna nail 1,000m#4,maybe not next week,but soon trust me on that.
1,000m#5,1.21,1.21,34-3.16.25.sure the 1.21s don't sit well but I'd left it all out there on the track this evening and remarkably my combined time was 15.53. just like it was on Thursday.

I've made no bones that post Syracuse the 5x1,000m repeat will stay in my rotation and at this point I'm looking forward to seeing how much lower I can take this repeat because I believe it can get lower.
