Saterday
lake district walk,however it chucked it down with rain, there was a months rainful in one day!! so everywhere was flooded, it wasnt much fun, so in the end managed 2.30hrs of walking before ending up in a local pub for 5hours, we sort of flooded the pub so dont think the bar men were best please

this session felt very strange as this seemed fast but when in form it is quite a comftable pace so did feel odd. never really got going and had very little form, technique seemed quite inconsitant, was nice to stretch legs though.....was in the second fastest group and they all had much faster accelration at the begging but i would often be level by the end. last rep felt like cramp was setting in in calfs
Friday
rest

Yes do the 5 peaks challenge.
The 150s show that your primary emphasis is on endurance not speed so your muscles and nervous system take a bit longer to respond. That is why doing somethiong fast regularly is fairly important. And dont confuse ability to run fast with acceleration, they are different.
the thursday recovery was great. It really shows that something is happening.
The 150s would also have suffered a bit from the walk. But dont worry because overall you are clearly getting stronger week by week. Speed work takes 8-10 sessions in the spring to get moving, and sometimes even fewer when toy have become stronger.
Think about doing some extra strides after runs sometimes (but not if you are tired, we dont want to pull anything)
