From my diary;
51.1 52.4 51.6 52.7 ave 51.9 feb 13th 1999
Ran 3:44.59 (52.3 last lap) to come 3rd in our NC two weeks later. 1st and 2nd had run 3:36 and 3:37 the week piror to that. The heat was my first race of the year. I was living in Palo Alto that year training with the Farm Team under Jeff Johnson and flew back to Australia to run out NC's. Two days before that session I did 500m 100j(20sec)200m in 1:51.4 total time. I was in good shape.

hey, how did you know that was my favourite workout?
59-60-59-58, when i was in 1:58 800 / 3:57 1500 shape.
well i have never done that workout but i remember one of my good friends doing a work out that was similar
3 sets 4*400, but the rest was 60 seconds, 40, and 20 with 18 minutes of rest in between, ish looked very painful
his best effort was 60, 59, 58, 65....and he puked right afterwards it was nuts
59.0, 58.5, 55.8, 55.6 grade 11
