McKay Oval 6 x 1k Reps

It was time to get back into it today after a few weeks with a sore calf, bad weather and any other Enda like excuse i could find and i was determined to crank up the training starting today as i gear towards running a good Half in May.
So it was back to my home office at McKay Oval Centennial Park to knock out some 1k reps and to test out the calf post 6ft weekend. Beautiful morning as i started and armed with my NEW GPS it was off i set - Felt good on the first, and not sure about the readings on the Garmin but it said i did 3.03 (miles out) , so i took the 1k mark where i usually run to and stopped the watch at 3.18, A little quicker on the 2nd & 3rd reps and wondered then if i could get through all 6 as i thought i was starting to struggle. The new Garmin was all over the place and i think i need to go back to HuRTS #1 Tucks for some more lessons on how to use:)
Surprisingly held the remaining reps to all the same time so was very happy with the overall session, I did take some of the Master Sweeney's old advice and was taking longer breaks in between reps mind you with 2.5 min recovery.
Times were: 3.18, 3.15, 3.14, 3.17, 3.16, 3.17
Will get back and rejoin the HuRTS boys for more of there sessions now as well starting on Thursdays 10 x 400s at Rushcutters.

Had a phone call from 'The Good Wife' this morning (Liv Kane, Dave's Wife) - pleading with me to show the photo that was taken of Old Kanser crossing Cox's River on Saturday, as he was disappointed it was left of yesterdays blog and he wanted to show everyone in the office. So to keep him happy and to make sure i get my Sunday breakfasts, this is for him :)

Kanser crossing the Cox's River - think he was a bit scared of the height to be honest :)

Tomorrow, The Trash reveals Mikey Conway's new side business as hard times fall and he is forced back out on the streets to find extra cash :)

Cheers
