1 mile warmup. Headed to a track by our house to do 10x400 (my first interval workout in years!). I was going to aim for 90 sec per 400. Started my first 400 and realized the dirt track was short-probably about 300 meters is all. So I set my Garmin to beep every 0.25, and jogged 0.15 for my rest inbetween.

Man, it hurt to be back. Even 10 400s! Guess it goes to show how much work I still have left to do, but also feels good to have a starting point as well.

Here are the splits: 1:33, 1:34, 1:37, 1:38, 1:36, 1:29, 1:32, 1:32, 1:35, 1:36 (1:34 average)

So it looks like 1:35 per 400 should have been my goal. But I think I realized that after the first 2. Hoping to get more consistent. I hadn't been on a track doing a workout from probably almost 4 years at least. It will be fun to see how I can improve on this as I continue to get my fitness back.

1 mile cooldown.
