Sweet! Sounds like we did similar workouts!
8x400 at 200 meter pace. I'll never do that again.

Well, let's just say that it was excruciatingly painful.
Mine is easy, it was a race though, not a workout: 2010 Louisville Ironman.
Hit 105 degrees around 2pm and was and never dipped below 85 between 7a and midnight. Cramped up about 200 times between the bike and run. Fell off my bike 4 times and fell running (walking) twice due to cramps.
Finished in 16+ hours.
Started the race at 183lbs, finished at 168.

At the time I was living in a small cabin in the woods really focusing on my training. My coach came by to give me my workout and we jogged over the the field I had been doing my workouts in, it was roughly a 440yard loop. I started the workout 20X440 @ 62-63 in sets of 5 with 110 yard in between and completed the workout pretty easily I started heading over the put my trainers on but my coach said we had to complete another set. I said, "what? another 5 440s?" he said "No another 20X440" I questioned his rational in my mind but I went ahead and complete the second 20 with more difficulty, this was the hardest workout I had done before and was wasted at the end. But my coach told me, "one more set" I thought he was crazy, but he was serious. I honestly don't remember much of the last 20X440 set, but I know I finished it. The feeling was like nothing I felt before, it was a wonderful euphoria combined with intense pain. I was all alone for the last 20, my coach ran the first 40 with me, but I knew after that workout I could take down any miler in the world.
Well played...
