Tue 3/18 - PM RLTAC 75 minutes incl. 2(800, 800, 1600)

While the pace on most of the reps (i.e. the ones I wasn't leading) was too slow for my liking, the workout went well on the whole. The past few weeks I've been feeling as if the full extent of my fitness has been overwhelmed by clumsy awkward-feeling legs and general fatigue from (relatively) higher volume but it wasn't as much of an issue tonight. No clearer evidence of this than the fact that I wasn't dropped on the cooldown, first time in a while, which tells me I wasn't using the type of effort as in most workouts of the past month or so.

Splits as follows:

2:27.7 too slow
2:24.5
4:56.6

2:26.7
2:24.2
4:55.5 (2:29, 2:26)

2.5R after the first 800 of each set, 3.5R before and after the 1600. I feel I could have done all the 800s under 2:25 and the 1600s around 4:52-4 without undue strain. Finished strong on the last 1600 but after a slow start. Calf started to get tight on the last two reps but prior to that no issues.
