I missed Bowral parkrun on Saturday; a few reasons: I need to stay off concrete for a while because (a) I've felt some niggles, due to extra running I'd say, in the hamstring I tore completely off the bone about a year ago; (b) I didn't want to do anything too hard before next Sunday's 10km and I'm always completely 'wasted' after parkrun! (c) I'd decided on an intervals session instead of parkrun; (d) It was too darn cold and I succumbed to the temptation to stay in my lovely warm bed and that's the truth of the matter!
Intervals: VO2max workout
12 mins warm-up
1st Set: 6 x 30 sec; 30 sec RI
2nd Set: 4 x 3.5min hard! RI from 90 sec to 4mins.
8 minute cool-down.
This seemed to go OK and wasn't easy by any means!
Sunday Long Run/Walk
10.5km
Jog/walk 30/30 seconds
This was OK too. Every second jog segment I used for a 30 second stride ...to while away the time! Pretty tired at finish; cold, heavy frost; that's about it till next Sunday's Sydney Harbour 10km!
smart move to miss parkrun - those look like two solid sessions...
ReplyDeleteYes, they seemed to be OK without being overly tired!
