Final leg prep session before the final track race of the season. Concerned going in about the right adductor but it turned out not to be an issue. Hot all day but without the crushing humidity thankfully. Trying to run relaxed and hit around 5k pace for the 400 and 300 reps and a little faster after that. It turned out being closer to 3k pace I think, having difficulty holding off the throttle even when I knew it was too fast. Windy along the backstretch pretty much the entire time as well.
set 1: 71.7/53/34.9/17.1
set 2: 70.6/51.8/34.1/17
set 3: 69.5/51.8/34.2/16.8
total time for each set in the 5:40-43 range. Controlled but working hard, too hard for a 5k certainly. Not expecting to fall into a pace as fast as this in the race Saturday. Cooldown was short and slow, a beeline out and back to the river for a dip to cool off.
