Mon 12/2 - PM 65 minutes incl. 4k-2k-1k, 2x200, 2x100

Edited workout that ended up being a pleasant surprise. Hamstring felt iffy at best during the day, continued pinched feeling all day at work. Did some rolling on the TFL/IT before heading out the door and it seemed to help a lot. After mulling over various options, decided to do a straightforward 4-3-2-1 cutdown. However, a combination of running the 4k a bit too quickly from the outset and underlying fatigue made me rethink doing a session of that length and so the 3k was scrapped. Had I continued as planned there would have been a stall by the middle of the 2k if not sooner. Decided to tack on a little bit of turnover, such as it is right now, with the glorified strides at the end. That took the form of a 200, 200 jog, 2x100 with 100 jog, then another 200. All told 1k more of running. With so much time away from doing harder training of any kind, never mind on the track, judging pace and effort was difficult. This resulted in the too-quick pace early on with the 4k, incl. a first 200m in around 42 seconds when I wanted it closer to 45. Certainly the methodical cutdown in pace within each rep wasn't really happening. More importantly though, the hamstring held up to the strain, even at the end with the shorter faster stuff. Splits:

Dank conditions with temp pegged at 40 degrees and high humidity but no wind to speak of. Warmer than I expected it to feel in fact.
