10K, workout #8
Today I'm doing a speed workout on the track.
The workout
A good warming-up wist a lot of exercises involving a speed ladder. The core of the training consists of the following intervals: 3x200m, 3x400m,3x600m at a pace around 3:20/5:22. Between each repetition, a recovery of 30, 45 and 60 seconds respectively and two minutes between each set.

Afterwards
This was a hard workout, but also very rewarding. Setting a pace in the beginning is tough, because it sets the pace not only for the 200m, but also for the 400m and 600m intervals. However, it went well and I was able to keep the pace steady, although, as often is the case, I started out too fast.
