Stromlo XC Intervals 800m Set 2 x 600m, 400m jog
At Stromlo XC circuit this morning for a short 800m race pace set. Weather sunny, warm and some wind.
The set: 1500m warm up, 5 x 100m strides, 2 x 600m efforts with 400m jog recovery, 1500m warm down.
Splits: 1:49, 1:41. Final effort of 1:41 is my 2nd fastest effort all time. I did run 1:40 a few weeks ago and have only run 1:41 a couple of times. I'm in good shape for 800m.
At lunch a 10km recovery run. This afternoon a pacing set at Stromlo with Jen who manganed to run 20 seconds per kilometre quicker than previous week in 4 x 600m efforts.
