Saturday
had planned to go to the track this morning but got dragged out last night ( i had planned to stay in and revise) and ended up staying out a lot later than i had wanted. Did not run today as i then had to revise all day.
Sunday
35min steady run. Just went out for a run, no pressure, getting fed up with exams so just wanted to get out side. Felt quite tired because i had been sitting in chair reading all day
Monday
43.37.....Ave 128....fin 143
had exams all day today so was prett tired and unmotivated, however flat mate was going so i joined her for a slow jog
Tuesday
morining- woke up feeling really ill an tired, went back to bed for an hour but ended up sleeping untll 13.00 which meant i had uni all day.
Evening-
went down to the running trackGot happily welcomed into a finnsih middle distance group, although there were only two of them today.
10x200m
All in 29 sec except for the last one which was 27. Had 2.30 min recovery except for the last two reps which i shortend to 1.30.
This felt really easy and relaxed although the 27 did feel a little tight and unuasll
I ahve been invitted to compete in an 800m race this Sunday.
The ytrack also has a farely good gym, has the basic bar weights.
Wednesday
morning- 52.59......Fin 147.....Ave 139
1-108
2-108
evening
31.59.....Fin 161.....Ave 155
+10min warm up and warm down (have to run through the city centre and you are always having to stop).
Think i have found a good route now so will try and this harder and faster. the problem is is that going down hill is quite slippery so i have to be careful and slow down making it difficult to keep speed. Otherwise things were ok, Hamstring seem a little tight but ok whilst and after running

Hamstrings were a little tight before starting, but once into the session they lossend .Felt fine running, really relaxed, prehaps a littke to relaxed as i think just naturally slow towards the end. Need to do more of these just to get the times faster and increase the rep numbers, not as comfortable as doing 20x200m, can'nt keep the same intensity

Good about finding the group. Enjoy the company. Daft though it sounds, the 300s are harder because they are slower. It means that you are not very much into white muscle so the bounce and power is not there. I used to hate this speed. My coach used to make me do 4x1500 like it and they hurt. I agree about speed and numbers. At this speed you should be able to do 30 easily. You must get used to rattling these things off much faster as a rule. I think you should try to get a few more sessions with pulse on the upper end and with real stress.
Good luck in the 800.
