First speed workout in a long long time. Probably since last April. A little scared of what I was going to see. I basically had time for a 3x1 mile.  Only goal was under 6 minutes for all three miles. 5:58, 5:53, then my wife challenged me (before the workout) to see if I could throw in a 5:30. Not quite, 5:34, I believe that if I had someone to run with or someone else watching (some adrenaline!) I would have hit it. Oh well, not terrible for first speed day of the block 1.5 warmup and 1.5 cool down.

Nice effort today! That's got to feel good knowing with NO speed work you can get all 3 under 6 min. Best part though - finishing that strong!
