This was a nice "welcome back" to running after taking a two week hiatus. Ok, I just lied, it was hot, unpleasant and I was pretty miserable. This was my first time running with 60 seconds of rest between intervals. I tried to pace myself, but without a pool to jump into in between intervals I just start to burn up the longer I'm out there. It was all I could do to keep my legs moving on that last mile. Not fun, but not a bad workout for having skipped all my runs since the 14th. Looking back at march I did a similar set of 2 mile repeats in 8:15 and 8:37, so hopefully it's just the heat making slow.
