am was hills pm was speed & the dentist thrown in there in the middle!

Got some good hilll running this morning. Set off around 8am starting from the haven. Ran for a 3k warmup out to Ocean View dve & back. I then tackled that skillion. Did 10 repeats all up. First 5 I set a goal to do 2 hard, 1 easy & 2 hard. I've never gone under 42sec on this so was happy when my times were 40sec, 37sec, 48sec, 38sec & 41sec. I then did 500m easy then another 5 but this time I went easier. I was kinda feeling sick from the first 5. The next 5 I did in 54sec, 50sec, 48sec, 46sec & 40sec.

My legs were so jelly at the end & was very close to throwing up. Legs felt much stonger than they have in months.

I then went for a 9km easy/moderate run along Ocean View dve & back. I felt fantastic in this. Legs felt light & fast. This would be the best I've felt running all year I reckon. Let's hope it keeps up!


After a trip to the dentist (pain free) WOW! I was able to get to training tonight. I did a warmup run of 6k. The legs were a bit tighter than this morning but still felt good.
We did 6x500m tonight I was was spent after. Nothing at all left in the tank.
Times for these were 1:33, 1:34, 1:30 then had a 5min break then the next 3 were done in 1:35, 1:35 & 1:34. These all had a 2min recovery in between
11km tonight

26km all up today
