15M double; recovery run & K rep session
7M am recovery run at ~6.30min/M
8M pm incl 6x1K at 3.00-3.05 off 70-80s jog & 6x100m hills
I'm still feeling pretty tired after last week. At the top of my quads. Like I often do when I'm in heavy training. So I wasn't expecting much when I headed to the track this evening. I even considered pulling on my racers to make me feel better (but didn't bother).
In the end, I was pleased with how I ran. My splits: 3.00-3.03-3.04-3.05-3.04-3.01 were better than I've run before. And it was off a shorter recovery than sometimes (70-80s jog). Apparently my stride was a bit short and I was leaning back more than sometimes - two things to work on for next time.
Looking back at my previous sessions, I've never run any of my reps faster than 3.04 and my slowest in a session is usually 3.08-3.11. Admitedly that's probably not something to be proud of, but at least it means I'm considerably faster than before.
