Track session

Tuesday 5th February
Track session tonight, as per Neil England's schedule. 17 x 300m, and in my group starting an effort every 1 minute 45 seconds.

Did 4 laps to warm up as usual, followed by a stretch. Found the reps very, very tough - tried to pace them so that I could do all or at least most of them, which meant I wasn't collapsing at the end of each one but had a very short recovery. Managed 16 in total, missing the 9th rep to make a "pit stop" and give myself a breather. It seemed to work as I did nice, consistent efforts after that. So in total 4.8k, or 3 miles, of speedwork. Jogged 3 laps with my friend Claire to cool down. Not a bad session, must keep these up to improve in races.
