At 7am I headed for the gym for a strength program including a warm up on the cross trainer and a warm down for 1000m on the rower. I also completed abs and stretches. The whole session took 1hour 15mins.
In the late afternoon, as a little warm up before speedygeese training, I ran with Teddy for 3.4km from home just avoiding the raindrops. He is getting better at running on the lead and I'm looking at increasing his runs gradually so that I will be able to go for a decent run with him before too long.
I chose to meet Ewen earlier than the main session at Parliament this afternoon. We ran out for nearly 3km where we met up with speedycoach and Katherine, ran a little further and then turned and ran back to PH, a total of 6km. There we met up with the rest of the speedygeese including a new starter, Emma. There were only 14 of us tonight. Some are still on holidays.
After a warm up loop the main session consisted of:
12 x 100m hill sprints with a jog down to the start between each sprint
We then ran another gentle loop before heading for another hill for attrition sprints. The grand winner again this week was Joel. He is truly amazing!
Total distance for day including warm ups: 16km
Hoping the rain and sorms won't ruin this weeks rnning!
ReplyDeleteJoel won't be amazing when Speedychief runs the attrition sprints from the back of Old PH to the top of New PH next week. I'm backing Kym!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear about your training regime - you're such a positive role model! I am deciding on which marathon to compete in this year - am flying out of the country to Vanuatu on the day you'll be running the Canberra Marathon!
