Wednesday Evening - Knox Masters
Warmup various including slow laps/50m strides/
step drills/cone agility drills/80-100m strides etc.
1 x 600m race (actually a 1200 that i only half
completed) followed by a little jogging to keep loose.
Then a 4 x 100 relay with my 3 kids running the
first 3 legs. We finished 2nd of the 2 teams - Never
mind! I followed this up with lots of cone drills and
even a bit of javelin throwing. My cooldown was a
session of cone drills done at a relaxed pace to
finish up.
The 1200m race that i tried to run tonight was an
exercise in bad pacing (again!). The first lap was
run in around 76 which was just way too quick for
me for a 1200. My plan was to be 3 x 85s laps tonight
to try and run a PB. After around 450 i knew that i
wasn't going to last at that pace so i sprinted down
the back straight to complete 600 in around 1:58 but
just wasn't in the right frame of mind to go any more.
It really is easy to come unstuck while racing isn't it!
