Today: 10km
Week: 10km
Month: 324km
Year: 324km
We had 7 x 600m reps this morning... another big turn out at the park. I did about a 3km warm up, then drills and strides. I felt particularly pooped on the drills this morning, but the legs were feeling ok. I started out a bit harder this morning with the aim to keep my reps consistant and to try and get quicker- but to not have such a huge gap between the first and last one. This worked well, with each rep either the same or quicker. It felt like harder work this morning- not helped by the quicker group catching us earlier and earlier each rep- hard to tell if we were slower or they were faster! The last rep I thought I would go out faster and try to stick with Allison... after 100m this was not going to happen and I aimed to just keep my leg turn over the same. Then in the final 100m I noticed that Alex was fading and put in a bit of a sprint to catch her, but I think we crossed the line together. I was pleased with my effort this morning... I found it hard to focus and there was the potential to just slack off. With all these long runs... you never feel like you have fresh legs! Saturdays 10km will be interesting after a big week!
Splits: 2:46, 2:46, 2:44, 2:44, 2:43, 2:42, 2:39
A place to think and reflect on being a mum, wife, friend, work mate and any thing else I need to be.

Yeh that quicker group, full of trouble-makers. The oval was soft and wet after the rain this morning too.
That's a big month of kms. well done.
A really nice set of numbers on the 600s!
And another nice number, just look at those km for the month! I think you beat me. I filled in my log this morning at home, but can't remember exactly what the month total was now. It was three hunnit and and summit, but.
Nice work Kit and what a great month - you should be feeling pretty happy with yourself missy ;-)
Hey, no fair! I was feeling pretty chuffed about doing 275k this month, and here you are doing 325! :-) :-)
Aren't you right about never having fresh legs though. I read a comment by an elite marathoner the other day where they said that at the end of the taper you felt so fresh, which made you realise how whacked you'd felt for the last 3 months...
