Sparkie's rundiary

"Wild Wally" I believe is the cute moniker applied to this morning's session - essentially five intervals over a hilly loop, with the first half uphill and the second downhill. Warmed up with an easy 5km in about 23 minutes, then some drills, and felt pretty good. Held back on the first one, running 2:18, then followed with 2:15, 2:15, 2:13 and 2:16. Felt strong on the second last one, but not so good on the last (on which Ewen trounced us all). About 3 minutes recovery between each interval.

Very happy with the session, considering 3 weeks ago I ran 2:18/2:15/2:20/2:22/2:22. Hill strength is still lacking, but won't go overboard on this, as the double-decathlon track is supposedly quite flat.

4.5 km home for about 15km for the morning.

Amelia's mother's group made the big trek down from Hornsby today, to check out inner-city living, so five 2 year-olds are running amok as I type this.
