Long Hilly Intervals

Changed the loop this week to make the effort tougher with more climb. Instead of one hill this week a series of three climbs in 1000m with an altitude gain of approx 80m.
The groups in several parts.
Kathy solo walk/jog, a chest infection. Pete jogging alone. Minnie, Bella, Heidze (head cold) and Janene on the mountain 15km slow run.
The rest of us Tori, Kirsten, Mia, Keith, Helen, Roget, Mick, Jodie, sb 4 x 1000m, 700m jog recovery. 10km all up.

Of me: 4:08, 4:08, 4:10, 4:08...very tough set, harder than 5km race pace, everyone thankful that was over. Two more weeks of that set followed by some undulating instead of hilly intervals. The strength should have come back to us all by then.

This afternoon another 10km with Bella.
Post training brunch at Tilleys, cosy inside, cosy outside only with gloves and a beanie. Bella very happy with three slices of bread and hollandaise sauce.

Sorry I couldn't make it today Bruce, late night and slight head & chest problem - no alcohol involved lat night, just not 100% and didn't want to risk others just in case I have got another infection. Will try to do the same set (as you guys this morning) in the arvo or tomoz...
