Nick Symmonds Workout Before Season Opener

The reigning USA champion at 800m, Nick is looking to be not only the best in the US, but in the world. He has made the 800m World Championship finals both indoors and out and now looks to make the next step; the podium. This workout was just to get a solid effort in before his first 800 of the season at the adidas Grand Prix. Some longer sub-max intervals followed by a quick interval to get the legs turning is they type of workout Nick likes to do a few days before a big race. Here he did the following...

600 1:40.6
600 1:41.1
600 1:38.8
600 1:39.1
600 1:36.6
300 36.9
The recovery was 200m jog.
