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!

Some speed!

12M - double; recovery run and speed session (1K reps)
6M am recovery run at 6.15-6.45min/M
6M pm speed session incl 6x1K at ~5.00min/M off 60s recovery

A good day. I tootled in gently this morning... speeding up only for a brief section to avoid the irritation of being overtaken. My legs were still aware they had run 20 a couple of days ago and I didn't relish the idea of a speed session.

But my warm up did the trick and I felt great on my reps. I had plenty of acceleration in me and managed to properly knacker myself out on each one. The short recovery works well with my 6 mile route. I think I'll try to race x-country this weekend to get a tempo session in me.
