Fartlek - On Fire

Nevertheless, I think that I might like Mondays. Not as a big fan, but I can live with them. Reason for this change of mind is Monday's potential for suprises. I'm not claiming that this type reasoning holds all the laws of rationality, but is life so rational after all, right?

I did a fartlek consisting of 5*3min.'2min. and 5*1min. with 2 min. rest jog. Longer "on"-ones I ran with really relaxed effort @ 5.20-5.18 pace. This outcome was really satisfying, since I was prepared to fight with my worn-out legs @ 5.30 pace. The shortest ones I wandered @ 4.57-4.48 pace which burnt my soles! I really don't know where this all of sudden joy of rendo (relaxed running) came from. Today's only workout increased my mileage with 12.5 miles (6.49/mile).
