Stromlo XC 17km incl 2 x One Mile
Friday afternoon session at Stromlo XC circuits of 17km including 2 x One Mile. Weather cool, some sun, some wind. After feeling fatigued on Thursday I skipped a morning run and took a nap after lunch, pre-session. It seems to have worked.
The set: Warm up, 2 x One Mile with 400m jog recovery, very long warm down to make it a 17km long run. Like Thursday the first Mile was a tempo (40 seconds quicker than Thursday), second Mile was flat out (17 seconds quicker than Thursday). I now have a keeper for the European Masters Athletics One Mile Challenge. It is my fastest Mile since 2013. I'm convinced I can run faster although most of my best runs feel as easy as today. Next set tomorrow at Stromlo again.
