Steve Long Stepdown Intervals : Jane the Comeback

Today Steve 6,5,4,3,2,1 minute intervals. Not a pleasant morning for it. Jane continues her comeback, starting to do a decent amount of work again. Steve has a 10km on road scheduled for this weekend. It's what I call a play race. It will hurt, might not be pretty but a good set up for the next bigger thing.

It rained all day, not good for training. Helen got out on BBQ a slow muddy run. I got out the door at 4:20pm, managed 80 minutes before pitch black. Felt pretty snappy after only 4km yesterday.

Either tmoz or Friday will be some hill strides. Saturday the usual Stromlo XC step down set starting later than usual...no Steve. Sunday maybe back on the track again?

This week didn't start well with some lap timing marshals giving me an extra 3-4 laps to complete with no fault of my own before I could start to get back on terms in the 10000m event. As things panned out I suffered like most others in the heat and chasing back on was impossible for me once the hamstring muscles started saying No!! The 1000m result wasn't so bad, finishing 3rd behind the front running three in just over 42 minutes. I have just been going through the motions since the 1000m, cheering on as best I can from the sidelines. When I get back home in coming days I will have a short break and start again ant build up into running from again as soon as the hamstrings can repair themselves. Today was mostly walking on the lush course as Stromlo xc circuits. If by chance I can do a little more than that I will try. Otherwise I look forward to making the long trip home.
