8 x 500m

Today did another big session and I was surprised about how hard it was. Just Chris and I today. We measured a 500m stretch of our 1200m running track because we have never done 500m reps. We chose a stretch of path which had a slight hill on it so we ran up and down the hill so going up was always a bit slower. Started off and hit 1:32 up then hill, 90s recovery before coming back down in 1:29. The next 5 stayed in the range of 1:27- 1:31 which was good and consistent and definitely tough. The last one Chis lead out then I overtook him at around 200m because he just hit the wall, I continued and ended up finishing in 1:18 so pretty stoked with that time. Never beat Chris like that before, a once in a life time opportunity, but to his credit he is a bit sick at the moment. Great session, definitely in form. 9km all up.
