The first of thirteen CSU indoor track workouts at BU. I reacquainted myself with Terry, Jonathan, John, Kevin, and Tom. Magnus, Brendan, and Stephen were there, and I introduced myself to Patrick, a guy who started running in Fall 2009.
After a jaunt around the track with Magnus to warmup, we did drills with Mike, a BU guy who works at the facility. John planned a workout of reps - 2x200, 4x400, and 2x200 with 200m rest after each lap. Terry decided to lead the more ambitious people to double that workout, for 4800m of reps. After the first set, I felt strong, and so finished up with half a set - 2x200 and 2x400 - before joining the stretching and cool down group. I felt comfortable tucking in behind Jonathan, Tom or Kevin, but Terry and Stephen were a bit too speedy. I hope to catch up, but I intend to be conservative and cautious.
Splits below are only for the reps:
2x200: 39.3, 38.8
4x400: 82.0, 83.9, 80.0, 81.2
2x200: 36.7, 37.2
2x200: 36.2, 36.4
2x400: 81.4, 80.0
After I asked about Ross's cheering patterns and then did a little whooping, it was decided that I am Ross's understudy for track workouts until he returns. On an unrelated note, I'm considering purchasing a loofah for superior exfoliation.
