With the mornings getting lighter and my first track races of the year fast approaching it's time to add my Tuesday morning speed session back into my routine.
As I'm targetting 800m and 1500m races I'm doing more sessions with shorter intervals in to really push my leg turnover and concentrate on form and posture.
This morning I chose 10 repeats of 200m hard with 200m of active recovery (walking at this stage of my training) and I ran it with the thoughts of Sir Roger Bannister making the impossible possible.
We don't have a track so I had to use a local loop which is at least flat but parts are a little twisty so not ideal. I was fairly pleased but by the time I had done my cool down I was already thinking I could have pushed harder - I always do! It's a good benchmark though.
