Classic Inspiration X

I assess the power of a will by how much resistance, pain, torture it endures and turns to its advantage.

Tufts Track Run (11 Mar)

One pyramid: up and down.
All rest was 200m (1 min).

400m __ 600m __ 800m __ 1000m __ 1200m
1:25 ___ 2:00 ____ 2:43 ___ 3:27 _____ 4:14

then 600m rest (4 min), and back down

1200m __ 1000m __ 800m __ 600m __ 400m
4:11 _____ 3:31_____ 2:49 ___ 2:05 ___ 1:18
