My dislike of intervals is no secret, but today was actually a very successful run including intervals. I ran 6 miles, including 6x800 intervals. I believe this is the first time in a loooong while that I've made it through the recommended intervals on my plan. Just for that, I think I'll sleep late tomorrow!
I think it helped that I kept the pace down on the first few. Usually I run them too fast and become burnt out and want to stop after the first two or three. This time I really tried to keep the runs at the 70-80% level of effort, and it seems clear that it worked.
Now if I can just remember that for the next time.
