Parkrun Coombs 17:26 1st : Steve 2km Time Trial 6:45

Parkrun Coombs 17:26 1st. Weather warm, not a cloud, light winds. About as good as it gets in summer. Splits(500m):1:37,1:43,1:39,1:36,1:42,(dead turn,1:51),1:48,1:46,(dead turn,1:52),1:42. Just 6 seconds slower than my PB on this version of the course, my fastest time since July, starting to find top form again. Steve ran a 2km time trial in 6:45, a PB for Steve on his local course. His splits:1:33,1:41,1:46,1:44. This week all about prepping for 1500m races on track in the next month. A step up with intensity and remaining injury free. Gabe also ran Parkrun Coombs today. Milli the Border collie enjoyed coffee after in a new environment.

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.
