Hi!

I can't make it to the speed workout at Anderson
High, but, I am going to be running "Yasso 800s"
on the Clarke field track on Thursday at 6:00 pm,
if anyone wants to keep me company. There is a
good description of the workout at

http://www.runnersworld.com/home/0,1300,1-51-54-624,00.html

Basically, you alternate 800 meters easy, 800
meters hard. I usually do ten pairs of them. Even
if you want to join in for just a few, that's great.

The Clarke field track is actually 408 meters
instead of 400, but that's close enough for me.
The surface is nice and soft, so its not too tough
on the legs. Usually there are just a few people
on the track, so there is plenty of room. Last week
I had the track to myself most of the time.

Anyway, I'll start at 6 pm, even if its just me! The
track is on the northwest corner of San Jacinto
and MLK, and not far from Gregory.

Cheers,

David Hoffman

Those 800s sure were fun! Maybe I'll try doing
some more next week!

I usually can't make it out to Anderson HS and could almost always make a 6PM "yasso" workout @ clark field. I'll try to be out there this week (10/3) but definitely others as well.

I'll be at the track at six, this Thursday (the 3rd) and
and other weeks as well. I've actually been doing the
800s since beginning of summer. Its a great workout, but
does get kind of boring on my own some time. Last
thursday the marching band was practicing on the field
while I was running, which was pretty cool; they
provided entertainment and didn't get in the way at all.

Anyway, I'll be at the northwest corner of the track
by the water fountain Thurs at 6 pm, as usual, if anyone
wants to join in.

Hey,

I just want to get a little more running in to get in better shape. Since I can't make it to the speed workout. I'll definetly be out there on the track running the 800's with whomever is there.

Just in case there's any misunderstanding, the Yasso formula has jogs between the intervals of equal time to the intervals, not equal distance as suggested in the first post in this thread.
