Intraining track session
8 x 400m with 200m jog recovery.
Moving out a lane each time. Smaller group today because of the weekend.
Felt okay apart from left leg not having any power. Feels like I’m just managing it and not really recovering from it yet. When running, it’s like I just land and go through the motion but the foot/leg is not helping propel. Trying to lift hips and keep up leg extension at the back whilst keeping the slight lean forwards. Breathing is hard when up too straight, need a stronger core to help hold me up. Lots to think about as well as remembering to run fast.
We were all confused as to why we were getting so slow and dropping behind as we got further out until we realised before the last rep that we were actually starting on the wrong line, the 800m line instead, so each rep was getting longer. So I guess keeping the consistent times means I was running faster than I thought I was so it wasn’t actually as bad as I thought when I was running. Last 2 reps the proper distance.
Splits: 1:26, 1:28, 1:27, 1:28, 1:29, 1:29, 1:25, 1:20
