AIS Track : 5 x 100m, 2 x 800m, 400m

Had to bring another session forward even though tired from recent days. Outlook for Friday to Wednesday is awful with cold, high wind and possible snow. Ran this afternoon, a breeze, full sun, tights, thermal top, over-dressed.

The set: (a continuous run) 7km warm up, 5 x 100m with jog back recovery (17,17,15,15,15), 400m jog, 800m (2:31), 200m float, 800m (2:30), 200m float, 400m (75), 6.5km warm down. I took Jaffa for a run this morning as a loosener. Bella got a run this afternoon at the end of my set.

Tomorrow the rain sets in, whatever I do will be done early in the day. I expect the Stromlo set to go ahead on Saturday. After that I'll be looking for breaks in the weather. Wednesday to Saturday next week will be easy. Sutherland2Surf 11km+ on Sunday. 127km last 7 days and falling slowly.

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.
