Maybe.....

Starting to hit a few repeat workouts here in week 4 of my training for this years races. I started my training on May 31st with a 2 mile warm up followed by 3 one mile intervals with a quick cool down afterwards. Today was my first "repeat" workout. I think after 4 weeks I have made some progress!

May 31st (3 one mile intervals @ 6:12 per mile)
Mile 1 - 6:52 + 40 seconds
Mile 2 - 6:43 + 31 seconds
Mile 3 - 6:33 + 21 seconds

June 28th (3 one mile intervals @ 6:12)
Mile 1 - 6:34 + 22 seconds
Mile 2 - 6:30 + 18 seconds
Mile 3 - 6:25 + 13 seconds

I still haven't hit the mark yet, but I am getting a whole lot closer :) Will this translate into a faster marathon? Who knows, I still have 14 more weeks to complete! I know that right now, I feel like I am getting significantly faster!

On a side note, I am pretty close to finalizing my race schedule for this upcoming season :) Check back in a few days and hopefully I will have it complete!

Happy Running!
