Solid

First run in a few days tonight just trying to recover well and I did okay tonight. The session was (1200m + 300m) x 3 with 2 minutes recovery between the 1200m and the 300 and 4 minutes between the 300 and the next 1200m. Started off well in the first 1200m coming in at 3:55 before the 300m which was slow in 49s. The next 1200m was tougher in 3: 51 but still felt okay before another slow 300m in 48 this time. Did the last 1200m just holding onto Tom in 3:49 and did a much quicker 300m in 43s. 9.3km all up. I have my first competitive 800m race of all time this Saturday, however it is in a 4 x 800m relay. I am in a team with Chris, Sam and Daniel. Sam and Daniel train with other coaches but are very strong runners with Sam dipping under 9 minutes for 3km this season and Daniel under 4:10 1500m despite both of them only being 16. Should be a great race, the goal is a top 3 finish in a very strong field.
