Jogging warm up/down (MIT Summer classic meet) 15:00 [2] 2.5 km (6:00 / km)
Before track with 6x50m strides and drills. Warm to hot 80s with slight headwind along home straight.
Conditions: felt fine and given this is my usual track training time and familiar track I felt good.
Mood- determined and anticipatory
Legs; rested and responsive.

Roller and stick on legs plus regular stretching.

Track race (MIT Summer classic meet) 5:09 1.5 km (3:26 / km)
Well balanced race and pleased with effort. Hit paces pretty much spot on and likely had something left. Form was good- good stride length and upper body poise / drive, so style points as well :-)
Splits as called out:
300 in 60
400 in 80
700 in 2:25
800 in 2:46
1100 in 3:50
1500 in 5:09.91
Notably I didn't fall asleep in the 3rd lap and pushed from 600m to go.
So had 60, 1:25, 1:26 and 1:19 (goal was 60, 1:23,1:25, 1:22)
Somewhat embarrassing to note another PR by 10 sec, sub All American age Std (AG= 83%, open age equiv 4:08.9) and top 10 on US masters ranking list.

Track race 1:00 [5] 0.4 km (2:30 / km)
15 min rest after 1500 and a bit of jogging and loosening up. Drew lane 6 in a mens heat - winner in 49. Drew lane 6 by seed and followed advice to go out faster- caught up with lanes 7 and 8 stagger by first straight, cruise mode then kicked it home. If I'd known how close I was to breaking 60 I would have pushed harder :-)
Time (FAT) 1:00.73 !!!! (AG =86%, open age equiv 49.9) GOTTA LEAN!!
Anyhow PR by over 1 sec and #8 US outdoor rankings.

3 PM
Jogging warm up/down (easy road/trail) 20:24 [2] 4.01 km (5:05 / km) +31m 4:54 / km
Got home, relieved of gardening duties :-) so went for a run. Legs moving really nicely and mentally buoyed by track. HTFU successful. Also achieved stretch goal for season of achieving 3 AA stds. Need new goal!
Based on recent performance, decided my running niche is 800m (US rank #5, AG=86%, open 1:57.3) but can go up to 1500 or down to 400.
