Tuesday Track Session

For those interested, Norman introduced a new session last Tuesday. Basically we were split into four groups, A to D, as follows:

A 8 laps at 5 mins per mile pace approx.

B 7 laps at 6 mins per mile pace approx.

C 6 laps at 7 mins per mile pace approx.

D 5 laps at 8 mins per mile pace approx.

All four groups would finish their run in about ten minutes.

The full session was three of these units with a 90 seconds interval in between. Of course, I was in group D and found it barely possible to do eight minute miling. Where has it all gone? I think the girls might have managed group C but, of course, they would have to have done one lap and 80 meters for every lap of mine. Perhaps a big ask. I did a total of 5.5 miles including warm up and warm down. Quite a lot for a track session. One thing I know for sure - it was hard work.

Went for a 7.5 mile run locally today taking in TF's Trig point at Cow Lane. Perhaps, during the summer, we could arrange to do this run, one evening, from our place.

See you all tomoz.
