Made it through the relatively long workout in one piece, something of a relief given how my right leg has been feeling of late. Continued to work on the right calf stretching during the day at work, overall the leg was stiff on the warmup nonetheless, esp. in hip flexor/adductor area. More worried about being able to complete the whole thing than with hitting the splits (72 pace on the 800s, 73-4 on the 1600s). Legs felt rubbery on the first rep but after that running those paces wasn't an issue, although running 4:52 on the second 1600 with negative splits while dodging people as they inflicted their splendid circus on the rest of us was a challenge. Splits as follows:
2:24.1
2:24.3
4:55.8 (even)
2:23.3
2:25.5
4:52.3 (2:28.5/2:23.8)
69.2
67.2
2.5R after the 800s, 4.5 after each 1600 and 90 seconds between the 400s at the end. Less tight and sore than I had expected after the workout was done.

Love the GBTC bashing!!
It had to be done. A fish rots from the head down, as they say. Which is not accurate, biologically speaking (the guts go first), but you know what I mean.
You should be more respectful and not use words that can offend others, especially in the running community. We all know how it is on Tuesday nights at RLTAC and we all have to deal with other runners cutting us off at some point, so f***ng adjust. Who do you think you are? Ryan Hall or something?. If you want to run alone go some other time or go somewhere else where you can have the track for yourself.
A mad GBTC folk.
Wait, did Ryan Hall buy a track pass for the RLTAC?
My opinion (and I'm not alone in this) is that the GBTC folk use the place on Tuesdays like they're the only ones there. Getting cut off isn't the issue. Try not running side by side in groups of 10+ and my harsh words will be cheerfully withdrawn.
See you Tuesday! You know who I am, feel free to identify yourself and we can catch up then.
