Training XIV

After Monday's practice test and CE's match last night where he had the fast attack, he decided tonight would be a good time for a recovery session.

His idea of recovery and mine obviously differs as he decided we would run for 30 minutes! Only joking, this was a gentle session which saw me cover around 4K in the 30 minute run. Everyone else did around the same with Fat Lad and Zico doing more, CE and Titfer (returning for one of his many business trips!!!) did a little less. I averaged at 80% of max hr and hit 97% when I decided to try a half pace run for the last 2-300m. I burned a healthy 942 calories on the whole session!

On Friday, CE is on another game and the same next Monday. Titfer has some customers to entertain as part of his job, so it looks like it's me, Fat Lad and Zico training on our own for those two days. Fat Lad fancies a really high intensity speed endurance session for Friday and maybe a couple of 12 minute runs on Monday. Whatever we do, we will work hard as we're only denying ourselves the benefit of training if we don't take it seriously. Just hope it's not raining like it was tonight!
