Yeah you must have done this workout then...

Any input guys?

Needs more pure hate. Did you look relaxed?

BUMP!

Come on guys! I need some feedback!

If you wanna build speed quick and then burnout sure, do this weekly

report back your injury

The workout will end in shambles, probably slower than the 2 mile pace you started at, if you end in 5x200 with 15 sec rest. That is barely enough time to decelerate and get back to the line.

if you start at 2 mile pace then drop 1-2 seconds per set it would work fine enough

Example: 2 miles in 10:00

1st set: 37

2nd set: 36

3rd set: 35

4th set: 34

5th set: 34

could be a decent workout i guess but I personally think when you want to race long you want reps of higher distance and when you want shorter distance you go shorter distance faster. This seems like you are trying to do a lot of short distances at a slow pace. Don't see it helping

I'm not gonna burnout cuz I only run 6 days a week, eat right, and go to bed early.

I'm not going to get injured because I do a full warmup and static stretch before every run.

It teaches me to push myself hard. It's supposed to be HARD AND FAST so I'm obviously not going to finish the workout slower than my 2 mile race pace. Also, I just need to focus if I want to get back to the line on time.

What are you talking about? 37,36,35,34,34X5?

The purpose would be to do 37x5 for the first set of 200's then start pushing it hard. You need to do interval workouts often to get faster!

Any other comments?

What are you training for?
