10 laps of windsprints

4km windsprint session tonight. Still some stiffness in the legs, even through the warm up and the drills, and a little bit of stiffness in the shoulders from the Bosu workout (mental note - try to do something like that more often than once a month...). Total dose of the 'tom tits' after a particularly ordinary day at work that saw my boss finish up and many of the tasks I'd carefully upward delegated to him over the last twelve months find their way back to me, with which I proceeded to bend poor Mohammed's ear during the warm up. No wonder he hid in the toilet during the cool down...

Made a point of starting out easily through the session. First lap was a little harder than I was looking for, but was soon in a good rhythm, gradually increasing the intensity. Started to pass people from lap six, which always provides good incentive to push harder, and ran the last 600 at good speed, managing 14:27 for the session. 3:37 pace.

Given the softer ground and the course being longer, this seems to stand up okay with previous efforts. Thought I ran it out pretty well.

Felt much looser through the cool down. Positive session.
