Alright Eddy, I'm going to try to get in on this too. I also hope to run sub 4 for 1500m this spring. Maybe seeing your workouts will help motivate me. Here is my background:
Ran in college, but had a lot of injury problems. Good luck trying to find me using an internet search, because I train by myself and coach myself.
Anyway, I just now started getting into my VO2 phase of training. Base phase went pretty well, I was running about 75-90 miles a week and doing tempo runs and fartleks. The end of my base phase wasn't as good (both in terms of mileage and workouts) because I got the flu. Just recovered and am ready to get back after it.
1/22/09 2.5 mile warmup, stretch, strides 6x1000m with 2 minutes rest between 2.5 mile cooldown, stretch
Interval times were 3:05, 3:06, 3:05, 3:06, 3:06, 2:57. Obviously I saved a bit too much, but it was the first workout like this I've done in awhile, and I was used to my body dying when I had the flu so I didn't hammer in the middle in fear of not being able to finish the workout.
Racing 3k this weekend, aiming for 9:15
