Stromlo XC Intervals 3 x 2500m

Final session in Australia for five weeks. Weather sunny, cold, wind picking up throughout the morning, very heavy frost. I banged my heel in the dark as I took Milli the Border Collie for a pee walk last night. Ran the session in training shoes. In attendance Steve (early set), Jen, Gabe, Roget and myself. Chris and Helen joined us for coffee. Had chats with Leanne during the strides.

The set: Warm up, 5 x 100m strides, 3 x 2500m efforts, warm down, 2nd warm down with Milli. All up 17km for the morning, 125km for the week.

Splits: Steve 9:07,9:08,9:09. Me: 9:30,9:04,8:53. Jen 5:04/km ave. Gabe 4:56/km ave. Next set on the beach in Saint Malo, France at low tide.
