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!

A solid session on the way to work

11M double; rep session & recovery run
8M am incl 8x4min hard off 90s-180s jog
3M pm recovery run

I ran a good rep session on the way to work this morning. Twelve hours on I can still feel my legs grumbling about it (in a good way). The reps were 4 minutes. Between a couple of them I had to take longer recovery because of traffic issues etc, but most of them had 90 second recoveries. I was really spent by the end.

I also adjusted my usual route to work to allow more hard running. I usually leave Regent's Park at Baker Street and have the last 2 miles or so along pavements. My adjusted route keeps me in the park to Great Portland Street and leaves only a bit over a mile along pavements, which works well as a short warm down. I think this route on my way to work will work well for sessions with my current work pattern.
