    I apologize for yet another prediction thread, but I haven't raced on the track for two years and have no idea what kind of mile shape I'm in based on this workout:

    4 x (200-200-400) w/200 meter jog btwn reps & 400 meter jog btwn sets

    35-35-68

    34-33-66

    32-32-64

    32-32-63

    Workout was done indoors on 165 meter track. Started out very conservatively and cranked it down a bit; felt relaxed throughtout.

    Background: 25:30 XC pr this fall off 85 miles a week before having to take two weeks off due to iron defficiency/overtraining. Been running for 7 weeks now with the last 3 being in the low 70s.

    So what can I run a mile in? Any thoughts and smartass comments are appreciated?

    thats a weird workout

    4:25-4:30 maybe??? I have no idea, based off your XC pr it seems like you'd be able to go faster but that workout doesn't seem too tough.

    did the same damn workout on tuesday. Ours was on a slushy road, though we did have good footing. Our workout went:

    34/34/68

    33/34/67

    33/33/65

    33/32/59

    I was a former 4:19 but can only run 4:55 now. Other is a 4:52, but he ran a 16:17 in cross, and ran 50.5 in track. So... honestly dont know sorry. I thught it funny we did same thing.

    I guess I should have mentioned that the workout was supposed to be at "Mile Race Pace" or "Mile Feel"

    Our coach described it as more of a biomechanical workout to get our bodies used to going fast again. So it wasn't supposed to be a gut-wrenching anaerobic session; that's what I mean't by saying I was relaxed throughout.

    And yeah, I could have ran 'em all faster, but that wasn't the purpose of the workout. I thought of the reapeats as "long strides" at mile pace. (note: my respiration was fine throughout)
