Cones all set up for the pyramid 400,800,1k,1k,800,400 metre set when just as the boys rock up the 'Fat Controller 'groundsman tells me in no uncertain way to 'collect my cones and bugger off'
So over to a makeshift #2 oval for the day and with a good turnout as the sun came out we were off, Some fast lads out with D.Tongue, Scotty and Hoey battling it from the front as I sat in with Mike Leichwark and Brucie Lambo, Was blowing pretty hard by the time half way came around and the section back up the start line on each rep was tough having to contend with the wind and slight uphill.
The 1k reps were consistent and was able to kick it down to finish the last 400m strong.
Distances were all running long today as we didn't get time to get the course measured right.
82 (3.14 pace),
2.43 (3.13 pace)
3.22
3.21
2.42 (3.13 pace)
76 (3.04)
Good evening then spent watching some of the old Liverpool F.C boys in an exhibition game, Quality was what I was expecting to be honest although some of the old boys look like they still have the touch including Riise, Dietmar Hamann, Garcia and of course Stevie G. Lots of fun especially late in the night with the likes of Kanser, Tom, Enda and Ronan all in full voice as the TRASH talk went into the early hours as the beers flowed.
Forced rest day today and couldn't even make my swim .
Have a good weekend
Train Well and stay safe
Cheers
