Ran after work again - it was 80 degress and totally beautifuil today.  I felt slow an stiff but I headed to the track for some 800 repeats.  Unfortunately when I got there, there was a kids track club there and I didn't want to weave through masses of teens and pre-teens.  So I decided to do a fartlek today.  I never have tried to do one, but I did 20 min total warmup and then 2 min fast followed by 3 min regular pace.  40 min of that and then 20 min home and I was done.  Plus I ran through a area of town I never run in - it kind of was nice for a change.  Lots of small to medium hills to get my heart pumping.

Tim, did those teens stare at you in awe?

Way to go, Tim. Gotta love those 80 degree days.

Sounds like a fun day. I like mixing it up a little differently every now and then.
