Tuesday
Rest, my hip was really tight from last week but had been feeling better today so thought i would give it a full rest in the hope that it would not cause me any trouble for the rest of the week.

1- 152
2- 127

after the fourth rep started to feel really good and easy and was reallly strating to get up unto my toes. was relexed and joging the recoveries.

Unfortunatly i could feel tightness in my hip during the warm down.

Thursday

5x300m (track)

1. 44+ 6..... 5.06.....115
2. 42+ 7..... 5.39.....131
3. 41........... 6.03.....135
4. 42........... 6.21.....134
5. 42+ 8

1-152

Running well, good technique, really felt as if i was getting up unto my toes. However those extra 50m i was running did feel quite tough and i probably slowed down on this part.

Thouht i had actually done six reps but mis counted so probably would of done 6 but i was defiantly starting to feel it in my legs after the 5th rep.

Friday
4x400 (length of park)

1. 65.....6.33...125
2. 61.....6.46...122
3. 63.....7.11...129
4. 64.....

1-155
2-134

Basically aimed to cruise the first 300m at 800m race pace and then try a rapid change of speed up hill. Really enjoyed doing this but it was pretty tough and could defiantly feel my legs working, it also felt quite awkard in my legs running that fast.
After the rep it was strange as my HR was dropping quite quickly but i still seemed to be breathing pretty hard despite HR dropping to around 115 on the first two recoveries.

think i may need to do a session where i spriont as hard as i can the whole length as i reckon i will find this hard and if i am able to do it well should give me confidence, i think im a little bit affraid to be sprinting 400m...a bit out of practice!

Hip is less likely to be the problem than back or feet or both. perhaps before you go back to uni you should see a good physio or chiropractor to get a once over.

i think its because i cut the side of my toes last week and then did a session and probably ran strangly on it. i will get the physio to check it out though
