Power Hills : 10 x 22-26 seconds
One of my weaknesses this summer has been a loss of power as I noted in my strides and efforts up to 300 metres. It took me a long while to get moving quickly again. Over the last few weeks there has been some improvement with some 200s down to 31 (should be under 30). I haven't had anything better than 51s for 300m (should be under 50s).
Today a mini-set to help address that. The session took no more than 30 minutes and included 10 x 150 metres on a steep slope with jog back recovery. Times started at 26 seconds, reduced to 22 seconds by the end of the set. I did favour my troublesome left ankle during the set. Today again I used the same hill where I screwed my peroneal tendons back in 2010.
Storms are brewing this afternoon. I may have to dodge them to get in another hour of easy running.
