Cross-Training

And so began the third of my twelve weeks 5km training program.

Drills and long hills was my choice of cross-training :  short warm-up jog.

1 Set Pete Magill drills with strides between each.....over 80m
About 35 minutes.

8 x 60 seconds long uphill - same road in Renwick as last time.
Jog down, wait around for a minute or two
Repeat.

When I ran the 6th hill repeat, I couldn't get to the 60 second marker and so I finished right there.
No use pushing just to say I did eight....and the last two, badly!

 Usual few stretches to finish;   home, showered and 
took Amy and Oscar for their walk before the rain.

Track tomorrow is 1600m AND 800m!    Fun?  As if! 

About 50 minutes cross-training today.
