not a very good session last night.
8 by 400 with 200 float recovery on the grass track out in Berwick.
Felt pretty crappy during the warm up and then started to quietly sob when the session was announced
The instruction was to run at somewhere between 3000 and 5000 metre race pace, I did, so why was it so crappy?
Every rep was a struggle and I couldn’t settle in to a comfortable pace, my stupid dumb heavy legs felt like they belonged to someone else. Despite feeling that I was gradually slowing down every rep was run pretty much at the same pace, 4:20.
Oh yeah, and I pulled out after 6 reps, it was either that or I vomit.
I never do that, I can’t even remember the last time I couldn’t complete a session.
Sometimes you just have a crappy day no point in dwelling on it too much, it’s coming up to that time of the month so I guess it’s to be expected.
I couldn’t get my act together for a run in the relative cool of the morning so I just got back from 10km in the not so cool of the afternoon.
5000 metres on the agenda tomorrow afternoon
and the forecast is for 35 degrees
I might save the PB crack for another day.
Back to work on Monday, ick.









I think it’s only supposed to be 31 now, so that PB should be a dead cert

I hope it’s not that hot – makes it hard to PB, but you never know, so head out at PB pace. Good to hear the Ikea back has settled down.
