Notes: Holy shit! This absolutely rocked me! Plan was to run the first two intervals at about 90-95% and then open things up on the third interval. Unfortunately, my legs were already heavy by the time I got there. I felt smooth on the first two, but the rest of the intervals were a grind. I suppose this should have been expected. I haven't run any intervals in a long time, plus I've gained a good deal of weight. Overall, my times were decent, but there's a ton of room for improvement. I'm curious to see what type of impact these intervals have on my leg strength for tomorrow's Oly session. If I feel strong tomorrow, then I'll definitely begin incorporating more interval training into the mix. If my legs feel heavy, then I'll have to figure out a different approach. My next sessions will likely be 4-5 x 800 meters and 6 x 400 meters. I also plan to work similar session on the rowing machine.
