Intervals "nice and relaxed"

Got up around 5:10 to the sound of rain and a distinct feeling that another hour of sleep wouldn't have gone astray. It's probably fair to say that if I didn't have the program I wouldn't have run this morning...

The rain was down to a fine drizzle by the time I got to Rotary Park. It wasn't as wet underfoot as you'd expect - the surface only had a light dusting of rain on it, rather than the fairly heavy due we've been getting of late. There was the usual damp section at the south end of the course, though.

The program suggested "nice and easy this week" for intervals and I elected to focus instead on form rather than outright speed. After a 4.13km warm up in 20:21, it went:
800m - 2:57
800m - 3:00
400m - 1:30
400m - 1:27
400m - 1:29
400m - 1:28
400m - 1:28
400m - 1:24
400m - 1:27
400m - 1:25

Finished off with a 4.38km cool down in 21:54.

Session was about 17s slower in total than last week, and I wasn't pushing superhard, so given how disinterested I was at the start I guess the session was okay.

Well, it's done, that's the main thing.
