5x200 w/ 0:45 rest
5x200 w/ 0:30 rest
5x200 w/ 0:15 rest
We started doing this workout in December and currently do it every 2 weeks (every 2 weeks in XC as well). It's supposed to be fast. What's the purpose of this workout? Is this simply a pointless workout for the 3200-5k?
Sounds like it's trying to reach you to run fast while you're tired. That comes in handy in 3k to 5k races.
You didn't say what the workout was but damn that workout looks insane. The last 10 look like they will be a grind. I think you'll get pretty fit doing this workout.

My first post says it all. What else do you need to know about the workout?
The workout isn't pointless, the frequency you do it is. Have you gotten any faster ?
