two sessions have been run by me on the track since the last update i did. the firrst one was 3 x 800 with 1x 400. sounds easy but it sure as hell wasn't. times i recorded were 2:28, 2:28 and 2:26 with a 69 400. the last 800 would have been quicker had it not been for a fall by one of my training partners which forced me to check my step. last night was 3x500 4x400 5x300 with long recoveries. i recorded 91, 90 and 90: 68, 69 69 and 70; 48 49 5051 and 52. the last one would of been quicker had i not dallied getting to the 300 start w=due to breathlessness.

switched to running on grass and will try that for the rest of the season and i could certainly feel a difference in my legs in terms of how bouncy they feel last night. whereras before i was feeling quite often like i wa taking a while to get going after a thorough warm last night up i was tearing it up all night. voted to go on strike today
