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. Some pain.

5M am speed session incl 8x400m-8x200m-6x400m off 40s-30s-40s

I headed to the track early this morning to try out my well rested (and now pain free) legs with a speed session. I was a bit sluggish initially - my first set of 400s came in at a measely 71-75s; my 200s were at 32-33s. My second set of 400s were a bit better - 70-73s - and were going well until I felt THAT pain in my calf again on number 6. I pulled out after 100 or so metres of number 7 and walked home. Very annoying. But much better than if it had happened prior to the marathon. And I've not missed any training through injuries for ages, so I shouldn't grumble. I'll have to talk to Ron about a good plan to deal with it...
