Thirty minutes at Turkey Swamp Park with five speed segments
Got out late. So I decided to run at Turkey Swamp Park because it’s closer to home. It was a little lonely and scary on the forested paths as the sun began to set. But it forced to be to run a little quicker to get through, and I added 5 speed segments at the end. No Garmen, so don’t know distance.

An 80* night at the cinder track……
After a 20 minute warm up I decided to try to run some 800-meter repeats at better than 10 minute pace. I felt better as the workout progressed,and so it turned into a progressive workout. I completed five with 2 minutes walking between each. The progressive times were 4:55, 4:51, 4:40, 4:24 and 4:16. I felt like I could have done one or two more rather comfortably, but I stopped out of an abundance of caution for my recently sore muscles.
51 minutes in motion covering 4.08 miles
Troublesome muscles were much less apparent tonight.
