First track workout in who knows how long. Jogged to the UofU track to meet up with Adam, Kevin and Nate. The gate wasn't open when we got there so Adam and I jumped the fence. Adam said it was ok because he works at the U.

Workout was as follows: 2x400 (74,74) 2x800 (2:30, 2:33), 2x1600 (5:13, 5:16), 2x800 (2:31, 2:33), 2x400 (71,70).  I need to practice using a normal watch so these could be off by +/- 2 seconds.  Splits weren't great by any means but I did get in a good effort and I didn't tweak anything. 

The UofU track is super nice and the views are awesome. Plus the four of us had the track to ourselves which seems a little odd considering it sits on a campus of 25,000 students. It's too bad these guys weren't around to race.

Nice work. I wish I could join you guys. You are currently at the top of the mileage board. I wonder where all the usual suspects are...

Learning how to use a stopwatch went the way of cursive and spelling once computers, spell-check, and fully-automatic timing were invented.

Nice workout, Fritz! Sounds like a nice track with great views.
