Monday Interval Run

I didn't go to swim team this morning so I could get my interval run done early...will swim later on my own at the gym. It's our last day in West Seattle, so I ran at the Chief Sealth High School track this morning...way nicer than the track at Lower Woodland (and no mud--whoo-hoo!). The workout was a tough ladder (1-2-3-4-3-2-1 laps) and all 3 of the H-aches were and are feeling it. My mile time at the top of the pyramid was 7:46 -- pretty decent for me, considering the amount of training (and the lack of running speedwork) I've been doing lately. I just kind of winged it on the recovery times/distances till my HR got down to about 100 since I hate long rests in between intervals.
