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!

Twenty 400m hill reps (and a mile hard)


















17M double; recovery run & hill rep session
7M am recovery run at ~7.00min/M with pack
10M pm incl 20x~400m up/down hill off 35s & 1M hard

Today I switched the track for a hill rep session so I could cook some Ottolenghi soba noodles for dinner. They both turned out ok.

I ran the same route up Primrose Hill as last Thursday. This time the uphill rep was into the wind, but my splits were similar to last week (69-73s). I didn't quite feel the freshness in my legs I had last week (which was after a couple of virus-enforced light days). And I really had to work to keep the splits even. Like last week, I focused on form not time on the way down. Sprinting on spent legs feels like good practice for cross-country.

I had limited time, so stuck to 20 reps this time and then ran the last mile home hard.
