Ran to the track (2.1 miles) for some 800s.  Then did the 800s progressively faster.  First 3 were 3:45 (whoops, too slow), 3:40, 3:34.  I figured after the first 3 that I should aim for 5 seconds faster.  Then I accidentally hit the stop button instead of the lap button, so I don't have my time.  I'm fairly confident it was at most 3:30, maybe a little under, but I will never know...

Then ran home.  I find that my pace after a little bit of speed is slower than normal, but I can't make myself hurry when I am running back from the track.  Whatever.  I try to concentrate on my form when I find myself running slow.

I've hit the wrong button on my watch before.

I think slow is just fine after a track workout. Good job.
