1st Workout ~~~ Track

It was very cold, very windy and very wet when I did this morning's training at Chev track.  Immediately I reached home, the sun came out and has remained so ever since;  I can't believe how quickly it changed!
This is the last few days of  my 12 week program...sad it's coming to an end in a way;  I love the training more than the event I'm training for!  In this case, 5000m track in Canberra, Thursday night.

Today's Program  :

10-20 min warm-up
6 x 400m 2:20
1:00 min RI
10 min cool-down

In pouring rain, windy and cold conditions.....
1km warm-up + few drills & strides

200m lane Chev, track

 2:23 (76%-78%);  2:18 (73-80%);  2:20 (71-80%);  2:19 (73-80%);  2:23 (72-80%);  2:24 (72-79%)

1km cool-down + few stretches.   

Not an easy session; felt I had to try harder than expected but suppose it was an OK session for the last week of the program and the bad weather.

Today 4.4km

  1. It was cool this evening too! Bring a full range of running clothes on Thursday - from crop-tops to winter woollies.
