Parkrun Ginninderra 2nd 17:28 : Steve Parkrun Tuggeranong 2nd 17:52

Almost perfect conditions for running at Parkrun Ginninderra, 2nd in 17:28,setting a new M60 age record by 1:58 (previously held by club mate Peter Brown). Splits(500m):1:42,1:44,1:38,1:44,(dead turn,1:47),1:42,1:43,1:45,1:45,1:42. A big step forward on last week, I felt great today. After Parkrun coffee as usual. Steve was 2nd at Parkrun Tuggeranong in 17:52. On Sunday a long recovery run. In the next 2 weeks a 5000m on track (weather dependant) and two more Parkruns, plus the normal sessions, with a 7 day taper to finish off. I expect to be back in peak form again on or around April 1st.

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.
