Minnie on the bush tracks 4 x 6 minute intervals.

Heidze: 600m (1:45), 500m (1:32), 400m (73), 300m (53), 200m (33), 100m (15) all with 1 minute recovery between efforts. Very impressive solo session. Looking great for a significant set of new PBs

After brunch in a new cafe, sk joined us after a sleep in.

Of me: Found that session tough going. Not recovered properly from last week yet. Only easy running and strides this week.

Stop press: Kathy 1st in 1500m in Oceania W60 5:42.22 ACT Record. 1st in Medley relay, her 800m split 2:50

Long Intervals

Of me: Early set. Same set as last 2 weeks, quicker again. 2000m (631), 1600m (5:13), 1200m (3:57)[first 4 efforts at 10km pace], 800m (2:30), 400m (69)...all with 200m recovery. Running technique much better. Form much better...not sure how much the form is due to iron jab or 5 weeks of consistent training and some great sessions. Of the others: I paced 5200m at exactly 4mins/km. Roget and Tori did what they could at that pace. Maria did 3 x 1000m. Janene on her own did similar to other weeks in the 4:10-4:15 range. Heidze did 1600m, 1200m, 800m, 400m and looking very comfortable in doing so. Kathy some strides. Helen this morning 4 x 7 minutes.
