Wed 10/7 - PM 45 minutes incl. 6400m in/out 1600s

With the half day at work and a limited amount of time to get things done, the goal was to run 8k alternating faster and slower 1600s of 5:30 and 6:00. Got through the first four of these hitting the mark almost exactly dead on and realized 200m into what was to be the final, faster mile when I felt that it was about to get a lot harder. Spit the bit right there rather than soldier through, not a satisfying feeling but better than beating a dead horse. The faster pace felt plenty fast and it seemed to take 1000m or so of the slower pace to feel the least bit recovered. Overall a useful session though and a type of training I should be doing on a regular basis. The "recovery" pace that's not really recovery seems effective to say the least.
