The bus to work (if you can call it work)
14M double; speed session & recovery run
7M am incl 12x210m uphill in 39-44s off 210m/~70s jog
7M pm recovery run at ~6.30-7.00min/M effort
Our morning session was another short sharp one today. Good for my legs. And also good for both me and Mike because the reps were short enough for our inferior aerobic capacity not to come into play (too much).
It was a sprint session using the road outside the Hilton Hotel (a favourite with runners here). Various groups were pelting up and down.
We were chuffed to be told to run the whole session with the main squad. And even more chuffed to keep up (or be within a second or two). A real confidence booster. Especially for a slow coach like me.
The evening run was nice and gentle. I’m going to run a solo long one tomorrow on a route I’ve figured out along quiet roads near the apartment.

PS Don't hesitate to put me down in a spare B/C team slot for an extra leg if there's a space!
