Great run tonight and another Thursday of 200m repeats on the track. I warmed up for about 4 miles before knocking out 28 x 200s with a 200m jog recovery. Aside from almost losing count a couple of times, the workout went well and I managed to keep within 37 to 39 seconds per 200m – not exactly flying, but nice to be consistent.
Next week I’ll be going for 32, but for now my thoughts turn to Saturday’s 25k at Fort Story. Not sure what pace to aim for at the moment, but here are my previous 25k finish times at the same venue.

I guess a lot will depend on the weather, so for now I think I’ll leave my options open. Should be a good challenge anyway. Feel free to leave a prediction in the comments section below…..
28 x 200’s!!!!!!!28? I can’t get my head around that many 200’s. Think when we were training we did like 8 or maybe 12 at the most. But, my PR is prolly an hour slower than yours. Hope you have a great race.
