Home, rehearsing all day...

To Braco and back with a friend. Then home from Dunblane. Lovely evening and good chat.

Met Iain and Daniel for a session around the field next to the house. A bit apprehensive as this is the first session for some months... This is before, after and in between reps.

First half of the session was 2x1km, 10 min tempo, two minutes between each.
Second half, after about a ten minute break which involved going back to my house to get some water, was 600, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100 all with ~90 seconds break.
All went surprisingly well and was surprised at the speed I managed along the path through the field. The only one I ran bang on the distance according to my garmin was the 400 which was 66. Tempo was just over 3:30 pace with some hills and kms 3:06 and 3:19.

A nice easy week over, feeling rejuvenated and hoping for some goof running over the next few weeks. Achilles is feeling good.

Bit slower than last year but there was a mini detour and I got some really grim stomach cramps coming down. Not surprised given the achilles problems. Only solution is to bang out some absolutely filthy training. Let's get it on...

In and out, another rest day. Not feeling the most sprightly.

Need it.

Riding around thinking that it's summer and forgetting about the upcoming exams. Loving the summer vibes and getting pumped.
