Today is the first speedwork at the track.  And the first workout for SGM.  After the 22:16 5k time.  My current fitness has me at a 3:35 marathon.  So goal was to run this workout either the 3 1mile intervals or the 4 800s @ 3:17.  Had a big group for the run.  Oh boy did some of them have no clue what was going to happen.:)  Got 2 new comers to the group.  And so we had Peter, Jeremy, Aaron, Eric and Shane.  Eric and Shane being the new comers.  So I gave them the choice of what to do.  Only comment I got was that they liked the paces we did for the warm up.:)  LOL that is where we changed it to the 800s.  And on Thurs we will run a 5k so then we will know our paces next time for our runs.  So with 6 of us we headed out.  Had Pete go first and then I followed and we just kind of ran in a somewhat  of a line.  Worked out pretty good.  And after the 2nd interval we lost Jeremy.  Ended up only having enough time for 3 intervals by the end and got in a little cool down.

1st 800 3:15

2nd 3:20

3rd 3:15

So not really knowing what my paces should of been it worked out pretty good hitting them close to it.  Might have to start meeting a bit ealier or getting it going a bit faster next time.  So we will have enough time for the full workout.  But it was good for the first one anyhow.  Now lets see how many come back next week or even for Thurs run.

You're like that professor everybody drops after the first day because he scares the pants off everybody.

Way to beat up on those new comers!! I had Heidi run her first hill repeats last Monday, she didn't like me one bit!

Tim- Oh yeah that first one is pretty rough. Surprisingly my body felt pretty good later in the day. So for the first speedwork of the yr it is good.

Flat- LOL yeah I am really wondering how many will show up again. For Thurs and next weeks speed work.

Kathie- I tried to take it easy on them. Just isn't in my nature.:) I will have to do some hill repeats one of these times too.:) I really could use it.

Maynard- Thanks bro. Speed work is good its just so tough.
