Orange Street Loop intervals/Humpin Hash

It would be beneficial I believe if I would start doing something like these Orange Street intervals at least twice a week. This afternoon I walked and jogged a half-mile warmup, then did two miles in which I alternated one-minute runs with one-minute walks for eleven runs. My overall time and splits were 34:49 and 11:34, 11:04, and 12:10. My splits for the interval miles were 10:49.9 and 11:09.2.
These felt good enough to encourage me. I hope to do them again on Sunday morning.
It took me 1:31:45 to go a little over five miles with the Humpin Hash. We started at Vino's, wound around the Capitol Building, worked our way to the River Trail and River Market, and headed back.
Oh. By the way. The winner of the Arkansas Traveller was a very handsome (at least according to Chrissy Ferguson), 31-year-old lawyer from Little Rock named Wes Hunt. He averaged exactly 9:35.5 a mile to become the third person to break sixteen hours at the Traveller. His time was 15:59:12.
