..bit sore but trained well

after training yesterday (6kms@5:14min/km) today was to be the first time to run three consecutive days since ummmmmmmm early march
and yeah i was a bit sore at the start. had to stretch MANY times in the warm up(and the legs felt a bit tired in the quads-no surprise -everytime ive been training lately, its been after a days rest
did the strides etc but wasnt sure how i would go
planned set 6x600 with 200 float(shuffle) in between, supposedly with no break at all

stu wanted me to do about 4min/kms so 96s per lap or 2.24 per 600
reps
2.25 float
2.26 float
2.22 walk then float (started having tummy issues)
2.20 -had to go to the toilet(no choice!!!!) slight standing stop then walk over
1.57-joined them at the 100 so a 500 comparable to a 2.22ish walk then jog
2.25- was bit fatigued in the last

then 4 lap cool down so approx 7.5kms tonight.

so a good set. i feel like im at least as fast as last year, just dont have quite the endurance yet

oh did i mention, im flying up to gold coast to run hte 10km :) yay

So which HM you training for? I'm hoping to be fit enough to run the HM at Melbourne Marathon, but don't expect to be in PB shape.

What brand of compression socks do you have?

Good times.

Woohoo! I'm racing the GC 10k too. It'll be the big GC Smackdown! We'll have to catch up for coffees. You owe me one.
