The Tabata

Today bit of a different session, 8 x 1200m of  Tabata which is 20s hard 10s easy, with 90s recovery in between. 1200m warm up before some drills then getting into the session. Haftu, Nick, other Jack, Chris made an appearance instead of school training and Declan got down still recovering a bit from his horrendous bolt through the leg injury. Started off doing the first in 4:23 and stayed steady for the next 2 both in 4:21 and sped up for the next one in 4:19 before taking 4 minutes off at the halfway mark. Feeling great and fit at this point and kept pushing after the longer break. Hit 4:18 for the next one then messed up the timings and ended up going slow for an extra 10s so got 4:28 which was a pain. Starting to hurt at this point but still sped up to 4:11 on the second last rep. Sore, but pushed through on the last, Chris just beat me and I stuck with Haffie which was great and ran another 4:11. 11.8km in all after a km cool down. A bit sore now, but stoked with the solid session.
