Pretty good session up to the last effort, I gave it everything but just had nothing left and failed to accelerate at all after the first 100m. Was running with the young lads and really noticed how much longer it took me to change pace, I managed to get up to the same speed as them on each 100m (except for the last one) but would drop 1 or 2 metres each time we changed pace.
Good news that I manged to cope with my first track session in spikes without getting too sore, looking forward to next week!
