Well, if Friday's Blue / Gold times were a little disappointing overall, today's workout more than made up for it. Almost everyone ran their 2nd tempo mile faster than they ran the second mile in the race, even after having run a faster first mile in the workout.
There was certainly a lesson learned during the last of the 400s - and that was that you each have much more left in you than you realize. Remember that during our first meet on Saturday. When you start to feel uncomfortable, push through it. Don't save your kick for the last 100-200m, instead pick up the pace with 800m to go, or a little more. Going moderately faster for a longer time is 1) easier and B) certain to lead to a faster overall time, than a late all-out sprint (not that you won't do that, it just won't be at quite as quick a pace).
