Yogging Mile Repeats

Front squat double
-15 minutes of quality work
Good times in JAX w Coach Paul

3 sets:
Run 1 mile @ 6 minute pace
Rest 3 minutes

As stated prior, it has been a very atypical week so far with training due to the shoulder.  Very little gymnastics work, very little barbell work..... Not the norm.

However, that's the beautiful thing about it.  "Ultimate Scalability".  So unfortunately, this means lots of mono-structual work.  Not that I don't do lots otherwise, there are just usually more barbells and rings prior.

Also, I had the opportunity to do this work on the nicest track in the state.....  My alma-mater Southside Christian.  Go Sabres!

The goal was to maintain a 6 minute mile pace for 3 miles w 3 minutes rest between.
I was able to make the first feeling good, fell off a little at the beginning of the second, and couldn't hold for the third.  I think I ended up @ 5:57, 6:00, 6:10.

I will try to do one track day each week if I'm able to get on at Southside, but will rarely do anything over 800s or 400s.  Today I just wanted to lengthen it a bit, and see how long I could hold on.....

Not long enough.
