*Unless otherwise noted, each workout demands maximal focus and intensity from the start. That is, beginning with the first interval, or start of a time trial or tempo/stamina workout, you are expected to be at your best and fastest. Getting faster as the workout goes on, as noted by improving interval or split times, will not benefit you and is not in keeping with this program’s aims. “Fouls” are penalties for unsustained efforts and should be avoided by making the ultimate commitment to each undertaking. If you foul, your penalty is to be completed at the conclusion of the endurance workout.

    Got stuck at just about every traffic light between my apartment and the White House, so thank goodness for the Garmin. The overall time is a PR, but I’m sure I benefited a bit from getting stuck at the traffic lights giving me a few seconds of rest.

    Knee felt pretty good–felt it get a little tight about halfway in but it loosened up and was never painful during, or after the run, so that’s a big improvement over last week’s 10k.

    ~10- 12 seconds off PR pace but I was pretty tired.

    Apparently Garmin isn’t Asian tech as I’m having some technical difficulties. :-/

    #184: 23:40 — I think because I’ve been slacking for the past two weeks and haven’t run, this one was really fun.
