Monday - great stuff! another 2 mins off the time for 9km's.
It still may sound a little slow to some people, but for me it's
quite an achievement. 57.05 this morning for 9km's is about
5 mins faster than i was doing a week or two ago. I must be
doing something right! The 2 days of complete rest that i've
just had on the weekend obviously helped me. I feel too that
a couple of the faster stamina sessions that i did last week
have helped to achieve the slightly faster cruising speed.
Of course the slow easy distance runs aren't really meant to
be pushed, but it's nice to know that my general speed is
improving.
Mon Arvo - Thought i'd take advantage of having to stay
home from work again (sick daughter).
5mins warm-up on the treadmill at easy distance pace
3 x 500m @ 16kph with 2.5mins walking recovery between
5mins cool-down same as warm-up followed by a little
basketball with the other (not sick) kids in the driveway.
10 mins with the 5.5kg medicine ball for the stomach and
there you go a nice little speed/stamina workout.
Not sure if i'll get a session in tomorrow - we'll see.
