This blog is mainly to help me and Ron (my fabulous coach) keep track of what is going on in my training. Good days. Bad days. Successes and failures. Aches and pains. That sort of thing. But please come visit once in a while to see how we're getting on!

Lots of miles and a speed session

23M - double; recovery run & speed session / longish run
6M am at ~6.30min/M
17M pm incl 14x400m at 69-70s off 40s recovery plus 13 other miles

Just a gentle one this morning round the park. The action really started this evening though. I'm not sure it's ideal making my speed sessions into this long a run, but it seems silly to get on the tube half way back from the track when it's faster to run.

I jogged the 4M up there slowly at first... but faster once I bumped into Ryan heading the same way. The session at the track was 14x400m today. It was a good group, with me straggling in 4th or 5th on most reps. The recovery was a good/challenging 40 seconds and I was quite pleased to be able to hold steady at 69-70s laps.

I felt a bit flakey after the reps, but managed to string together a good number of miles on the way home. The hypoglycaemia was probably good training.
