发帖数: 2120 | 1 Yesterday I got an Email from a local running club about a track training at
5:30am. I was thinking: it was too early, it is not safe that early, I do
not want to drive...
Then I woke up at 5:30am this morning. Even I tried to go back to sleep, I
was thinking about the track. Well, the excitement won so I left my
apartment about 6:15am. The cross country team of the university was there.
But somehow only one guy was running, and all the others are chatting or
warming up on the side?
So I started my Yasso 800, which I have not done in this year. I guess I was
worried my pace will be ugly, but any way I started running. I might not
try hard enough, and just enjoyed the excitement to be running at dawn.
During the first lap, I was very impressed by the guy who was running. He
looks very easy, but the speed is fast. Then I came to ask the coach, who
told me this guy is more like a miler. His current pace is about 5 and his
5K time might be around 14min. Wow, that is the reason.
At the end of my 4th interval, somehow I feel the guy was becoming closer
and closer from the behind. It is only two laps, and he is going to pass me
by one lap! I tried to run fast, but felt my legs almost could not move
forward. I thought I am going to collapse...Somehow, I finished a few
seconds earlier, although I am not sure whether he slowed down a little bit,
just to save me some face...The good thing is that this turns out to be the
fastest one for me in this morning, with a pace of 6:57. After he left, I
continued but did not go any faster...
Then during another interval, somehow I heard some beautiful music, then I
realized it came from a DiZi. No way, I saw it is he or she sitting on
audience stairs playing a flute! Wow, how nice this is! I finished and left
in a good mood, while later found out that I only did 9 instead of 10
intervals...Here are the paces:
7:20,7:06 ,7:12,6:57, 7:14,7:17,7:30,7:16,7:22
The pace is slower than last year, so hopefully it will come back and get
better. | c*******r

I never did any Yasso 800 since I ever heard about this from what you did
with WHX years ago. each time I thought about this, I felt too hard for me
to start. | m**k
发帖数: 18660 | 8 Yasso 800 should not be very hard (我总觉得有人把Yasso混同于800 interval)
我觉得应该比interval容易啊。

发帖数: 1283 | 10 Yes, Y800 should be done at a very even, controlled effort. But it's also
less fun than intervals, because it's not as fast.:)

发帖数: 2120 | 12 I guess I run it as intervals, for which 3:40:00 needs a pace about 6:50. So
I am slower than what I want to be-:)

发帖数: 2120 | 14 Now I realized that for me, Y800 has been an intimate icon for 800*10
intervals-:)
