Goal Work: “What goes around, comes around” - Proverb

Today was my first day of "speed work". I went to the track and ran 4 laps as fast as possible and then walked a lap (lap 1 10:16, lap 2 10:38; lap 3 10:38; lap 4 11:23).
I then ran 4 laps fast for me( 10:50; 11:04; 10:58; 11:19) , then walked a lap, and then ran a final 4 laps in an easy fashion (13:38; 12:30; 12:14; 12:06 -- nice negative split in that series).
You can see the first 5 laps here and the next 10 laps here
It felt good.
April 12 this "speed work" as well as group sessions will be supported by Mid Hudson Road Runners Club.
I participated last year and enjoyed it although I don't think it made me any faster. I do think it help me maintain consistency and probably stopped me from getting slower.
