1000’s on the dike were always one of those hated workouts in college. Something about running 1,000 meters over and over again isn’t really fun! 

That was the workout today, 4x1000m with 3:30 rest in between. 1000m feels like a long way, especially when you run the same routes over and over. I tried to mix it up a little and was rewarded with two huge mud puddles that were hard to get around during an interval! In a race I’d totally run through it, but early in a run… 

Overall 5.36 miles in 56:01. The four intervals were:

6:00

6:14

5:27

5:18

Do you like 1000m intervals?
