Just two nights ago ran a great 3600m training cooper on Los Altos High track. It was in the morning, a bit windy but sunny. Tried 1000m test as a follow-up but burned in the last lap and finished with 3.05.
Today stopped by at Foothill College’s track on the way home and was going towards 3500m but stopped running at 9 mins mark as I couldn’t maintain the speed.
Such a difference. I’d certainly need to do two times 3600m twelve minute tempos in a row before getting to Bay to Breakers starting line … which is waiting just some six weeks ahead from now.
