Warm up and warm down with drills. All I could think of jogging home was drinking water. Sweaty stuff today

8x 1min hills,10x 30sec hills. I spent a while beforehand faffing about trying to pack for the weekend so it was pretty warm by the time I got out, (which was still only 9am!), and my legs felt super heavy in the warm up so I was preparing to have a very bad time. Ended up feeling pretty alright in the hills though! Managed within a step of the same distance each time, and had a little encouragement from a girl walking her dog to keep me going. Exhausted!

At the gym. Not the most exciting class but I worked harder than what i thought i would. Unless it just felt like that because my legs are feeling it from yesterday.

A little bit with the TRX bands. Ridiculously short but i think i'll go and use them when there's not so many people instead. I felt like such a spud!

Streeto at Rankin Park. Super hilly! I went to the flatter section first thinking i could run harder through that and then just manage the hills but my legs felt super super heavy at the start so it didn't work too well. I was a bit gone at the 40min mark, plus i got a bit of a stitch and couldn't even enjoy the downhills. Ended up 3 mins late but it was a fun run.
Time is plus a (tiny) warm up and some drills after.

17min warm up with a few drills, aaaaand a 13min warm down with some more drills.

8x 400m on a 3min cycle. Times were 90/91 secs, 7th was 93 though oops. The home straight was tough into the wind but it was a good session, top company! Mega exhausted at the end.

I got so bored. Went walking and possibly made my blisters worse, oops.

Planned long run at Glenrock with Josh, Macey, Rob and Kas. My new shoes feel a bit smaller so I took my old ones to save squishing my toes on a long run, but i forgot to get my innersoles... so i ran with just my half orthotics and had myself some blisters after only 15mins. GAHHHH so silly. It was enjoyable!
