6 X 1000m 200m jog recovery (>2 mins) Nudgee

Thurs 5.22am 10.67km Lake+Roo 46m17  4m20 K's
Fri 5.23am 10.66km Lake+Roo 46m21  4m21 K's


Sat. 5.34pm Nudgee 6 X 1000, 200m jog recovery less than 2mins.


Spent the day doing the lawn and then tried to play a little street tennis with Lily. I had to make a real effort to try and run to the ball rather than more usual walk. In normal life I am so stiff and lazy!
It was another late start at Nudgee, the sun had set and night was falling, only one fellow at the track (sprinter Joe Beggley) and he was just finishing his warm down and I was focussed on my warm up so I didn't have time to stop and ask how he went at Nationals.
Standard warm up 2km, 4 strides and into it. 
Wore spikes, conditions cool for Brissy and no wind - good!

A pleasing session as I felt comfortable and my recovery was pretty swift, shame I didn't have the heart rate monitor on.

Thanks for your comments on my Blog Dave. I think we'd be evenly matched over 5km at the moment. Not sure we'll get the chance to race each other any time soon unless you are planning a trip to Ireland to discover your roots!

I read this post and thought you were being a bit soft with your big recovery (>2 mins!). But then I realised you had done them with less than 2 mins. Great running and long may your run of form continue.
