April 16, 18 and 20

Friday the 16th- 4.2 miles with 12 x SS 

Sunday the18th- Looking to log some extended aerobic time in motion today. I selected a demanding workout with a goal of 10 x 800m with 3 minutes average recovery walk. First 2 served as warm-up @ 6:30 pace.  The aim is to spend as much time as possible with a heart rate above 135bpm.  The remaining 8 were progressively quicker with #9 getting down to at 4:52. Final 4 under 5:15…..Total time 62 minutes…… Draining but rewarding

Tuesday the20th-  Today’s goal  was to try to run some 400m at goal mile race pace 6:00.  The legs were a little heavy and sore from the Sunday 5 miles of 800s. So, I spent 40 minutes on a multi-faceted warm-up; jog, walk, stretch, drills and strides. After I ran 1:40 first 400m it became clear to me that 6:00 pace was out of my reach. I completed 2 more at the same pace accepting that 6:40 more reasonably reflects my current fitness level goal.

STATS-

Weight, Sleep, Diet and Heart Rate maintaining at positive levels.

0 leg issues, 0 foot issues

Low ankle soreness on outside right is improving.   Ciomplains only during warm-up.
