Thu 3/11 - PM 75 minutes incl. 1600, 8x200, 1600

Dragging a bit by late afternoon today, but more alert by the end of the warmup routine. Looking to bookend a set of 200s @3k pace between two negative split 1600s. No idea if the final 1600 would come off or not but it did. First 1600 5:06.7, 2:36/2:31. Hit the 400 just under 80 and got progressively faster from there, final 400 just under 75. Then a 4.5 minute break, then the 200s which fell between 36.3 and 37.2, avg. 36.8. Recovery interval of around 75 seconds, long enough to catch my breath but maybe should have been a bit more to keep things relaxed. Followed this with a 6 minute break, mainly due to a bathroom visit that dragged on longer than desired. Second 1600 started out in 81, which felt plenty relaxed but I overcompensated on seeing the number and dropped right away to 75 for the next 400 and the pace ended up staying there the second half. Not nearly as smooth a progression although the 800 splits ended up being almost identical to the first one. Feeling the left adductor after this workout, which put more stress on it than any of the longer slower workouts I've been doing of late.
