Keith in Bega

Down in Bega Keith continues with the similar sessions we do here, although on different days. Today it was 4 x 2000m (7:17,7:24,7:34,7:50). Bear in mind Keith is 5 years older than us, he is in very good shape for the off season.

For two days straight I have run to work and back. That is normal for winter on a few days each week as the light gets shorter and the temperature colder. At this rate I will be near 120km for the week, so long as the niggles stay away. I still have a 5 x 800m session to do on the way home.

It's been two months since damaging my achilles by wearing middle distance spikes in the 10000m in Hobart. I can now say it is 95% better and some other niggle can soon take its place. As well as all the stretching, ice and so on I've invested in some more of the same I already have 'light marathon' shoes with ample cushioning. In those I'll be doing all of my speed work until the spring to minimise the risk to injury.
