One of my favorite workouts in the early spring? Warming up with a three-mile run to San Jose city college, in the evening, and doing 200 yard repeats outside the baseball diamond, on the grass. I would do 20 x200 yards, with a 100-yard jog in between. I loved the idea of going a big faster and feeling good, with no one on the diamond but me. Lights were on late at City College, and the feeling of going fast was a great workout a couple days prior to a weekend race.
