Running Quarters

On Monday Sue and I played some racquetball, and then we went to the treadmills. I was just going to run for a bit, get a good sweat going, you know. But once I got started I decided to run some quarters. For those of you unfamiliar with the term, what I did was run a mile at my 5k pace (around a 7-minute mile). Then I ran a quarter mile at 6-minute-mile pace, then a quarter at about 8:30, and alternated six quarters like that. Then I finished back on 5K pace for a half a mile.

Talk about feeling well-trained!
