Steve Short Lactate XC Intervals ; Recovery Run : Kings Park 4 x 100m Strides

Steve this afternoon on grass a short lactate set we do often when it's needed. The set: 600m 1:57, 500m 1:33, 400m 74, 300m 54, 200m 32. Recovery 60 seconds. Steve's almost on par with last year now and it's only taken a few weeks to get there...better things to come.

This morning the 40 minute run to Kings Park via Jacobs ladder. I don't recommend this route when fitness groups are using it. It's not good for my ego being passed by all those people. Afternoon run was 25 minutes including 4 x 100m strides on grass.

This morning there was some smoke haze from down Mandurah way. It wasn't great for photo taking.

I've been up Kings Park a few times over the years. In 1997 I was there at night, quite a view. My best memory was in 1993 after the Australian 3 Day Orienteering Championships. Ann's father was the caretaker so we all pitched tents in grounds of the caretaker's cottage and went for a longish run in the park before heading to Rottnest Island and down Bunbury way for the WA Championships following weekend. The running on dry ground wearing hard shoes did some blister damage to my poor feet. Photo from now and then.
