16th-22nd

Saterday- 8x80m up hill moderatly steep hill

Ave time= 12sec
Ave Fin HR= 171-178

the session was ok but it did feel strange, felt quite wobbly going up which i think was because my legs havent moved that fast in quite some time

Sunday- 90.30 mins Fin 150.....Ave 156

1-134
2-123

felt slower than last time and the heart rate rose/jumped quicker as well, had also jared my right knee and it felt quite stiff that day

Monday- 15.40min

crusing pace tried to drive along and i think that overall it was faster than last time but it was mudy is a section which made it impossiable to run on and that slowed the time down by about 90seconds. wanted to run for longer but i cold feel the body goimg into stress so thought best to stop.

the knee ached a little before i went for th run but as soon as i had been runing on it fr 5mins it was ok an i had no troubles with it for the rest of the week
