Speed play...not Fartlek

  Super nasty weather so I wasn't able to get to the track so I jumped the treadmill.....a 7/10th warm-up then knocked an 8 min mile, rested a 1/4 then went after a 7:30 mile but backed down to 7:53 pace after 8/10ths so I almost made it! Finished with 3.227 miles in 31 min. Feeling good...keeping the desire to run...still dreaming about achieving goals...peace! (going to play a bluegrass festival that's why I'm so short today)

what training plan are you following? running that fast without enough warm up might not be good

Hey Friend, you are right....I was so pressed for time I pushed it some...I call it the "Spring Theory" plan....I hope to get at least three "Hard" efforts in each week...supplemented by one or two easy efforts...
