Track session, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1

Yep I can count backwards...

Organised my squad, Jo, Claire, Steph & Mia, they knew what they were doing, well I thought they did...funnily it was Jo who didn't really do what I was hoping...but I did give her the choice and she chose the harder set and not really what I wanted, oh well my fault, I gave the choice.

My session tonight was 2000/1600/1200/800/400 @ approx 105 sec per lap with 60 sec recovery. A solid session of 6km of effort, whilst the first 2 reps would be a bit of a struggle, I knew in the mind it would be all downhill after the 1600.

Reps (recovery):
2000m - 8:46 (65)
1600m - 6:48 (61)
1200m - 5:10 (66)
800m - 3:30 (58)
400m - 1:37 (walked 200m)

Finished the session off with three laps in lane 8. Happy with the session, whilst I was probably working a little harder than the session should probably be done at for maximum benefit, but I always felt I could go slightly faster if required and I was always ready to go before 60 sec, but talking to kids I coach were the reasons for slight delays.
