"April Showers"

Run 4-5 x 800 meters (rest 3 minutes between intervals)

1.  3.03
2.  3.08
3.  3.10
4.  3.00
5.  DNS

Then, 10 x 25-yard sled-pushes

Notes:  It was a cold and rainy morning at the BHS track, but we got in some good work.  Goal for the 800s is to be able to hold all five sub-3.00.  I should actually be there soon.  This is a great compliment to my weekly long, slow run and my weekly "tempo" run.  I emptied the tank on the fourth interval and decided to move onto sled pushes.  Bobby, Tim, and I rotated through the sled pushes as we shuttled the sled back and forth.  We used Bobby's sled and stacked a 45-pound bumper plate on top.  The tempo was quick -- there was probably about 30 seconds rest between each push.  Great exercise to develop the glute and hamstring power required to handle hills.
