Back to work

I didn't run on Wednesday - did some gutbusters, but that was it. These things happen. I only had a swim scheduled.

So, Thursday night and back to squad training. Good to catch up with everyone, and a short session tonight ahead of the Aths NSW Short Course XC on Saturday, only 5 x 400. Have a little niggle in the left calf that Martin Horne had some acupuncture in this morning (helped), had Easy Tiger take a quick look at it but he didn't seem overly concerned about it. Wasnt a hindrance when running.

Solid warm up, and then into the (relaxed) reps. They went 81, 79, 79, 78 and 76. Didn't feel like there was a lot of speed to be had there, almost like breaking out of a locked pattern - guess 42km of 4 minute k pace is probably going to affect your pace.

Felt fine otherwise.
