the standing "ample" recovery was interesting - i was curious to see that i maintained a reasonably consistent pace as well as fairly even rest periods (except for the 4th one)...i didn't look at my watch and just headed off on my next 500 when i felt myself relaxed in breathing and heart rate (i only cut the last rest short as i had to head back to work)...
