World Masters Athletics Championships 2018 : Taper Day 5 : 3 x 600m
Probably my final track set in Paris. There is a possibility of a short set on Sunday morning before I depart. Weather cloudy, cool to warm, light winds.
The set: Warm up, 4 x 100m strides, 2 x 200m strides (35,34), 3 x 600m, 600m jog (1:51,1:49,1:48), 4 x 100m strides, warm down. All up 14km for the morning, 114km last 7 days.
That's the closest I've go to a 1500m set so far. It's probably all I need to do given the race schedule I've got. I felt great out there again, never flat out. Too late to take risks.
Tomorrow an easy recovery run of 65 minutes. Saturday Parkrun I will do as a tempo or intervals. I'll see how I am feeling on the day. I will be under 110km for the week by then and still reducing to around 80km for the week by the time I land in Malaga.
