Notes to self:

1. Don't run intervals the day after a long run.
I knew this one to be true but had to verify it ... I guess. The result was heavy legs and an exaggerated sense of "perceived effort" among other things. None of which result in a particularly good workout.

2. Intervals were meant to be run on the track.
I guess the Klein High track is going to be closed down all summer for major construction that's going on at the entire campus. This isn't good. KHS is a nice 1.7 miles from my house and there's no other tracks close by that I'm aware of. Running my intervals on the road lacks the spatial awareness that comes with being on the track. Not to mention the runner-friendly surface at the track.
