[toe jam on crusty feet]

I need some new ones....<br><br>
Here is my favorite:<br><br>
I warm up like ten minutes (I run to a nearby neighborhood that is exactly one mile loop).<br>
I take the loop at a brisk pace and time myself. PRE around 7<br>
Rest 3-5 minutes to recover<br>
Lap #2: I have to beat the first time for the mile. PRE around 8-9<br>
Rest 3-5 minutes<br>
Lap #3: Have to beat lap #2 time. PRE around 9-10

i like that first one Hippo..... I am training for the Marine Corp and I think I can BQ. So, I want to be super efficient and relaxed. I think I will do that one next week.<br><br>
Today at lunch:<br>
I did mile repeats with a .25 mile slow jog in between (+a warm up of course)<br><br>
1/2 mile warm up: 10:00 pace<br>
1st mile: 8:00<br>
2nd mile: 7:45<br>
3rd mile: 7:30<br><br>
I will have to run about 8:30's to qualify and i just started playing with heartrate and zones and all that. My mind is spinning from it.
