Starting off the New Year right with a track workout. 3 x 1600m (200m jog) + 3 x 3000m (400m jog) + 4 x 200m (200m jog).

34.4, 33.7, 33.1, 32.9 (R)

It poured during the 1600s. 1/4-1 inch of water in lane 1 all the way around. It stopped and the track mostly drained before the 1000s, though I was totally soaked. Relatively warm at 65°F. Everything felt pretty good. I kept starting the 1000s a little quick (72s 1st quarter).

This is the last speed work I do before Houston. There's a 4 x 2 mile scheduled for Saturday, and after that it's all taper and smaller maintenance work.
