Wednesday Evening - Knox Masters (5.2km/55.1km)
As i was on duty tonight i decided to get down to
the track a little early, warmup and just run
in the first race which was the 1600m. I wanted
to do this one as it is outside my comfort zone
and my worst distance of all. I hate 1600m!
Warmup including 3 laps at slow jogging pace.
5 x 30m high knee skipping
5 x 30m bum kicks followed by another slow lap.
3 x single grandstand steps followed by another slow
lap. 2 x 50m strides followed by 3 x 90m strides.
1 x 1600m race (8th in 6:31). I had the Garmin set
to do splits for each lap - 1.29/1.39/1.48/1.34
You can really see from that how i really struggle
with the middle part of that distance.
2 laps of slow jogging to cool down. After that i
just played starter for the remainder of the races.
Total distance run 5.2kms.
