Training 2.22

Another Friday and another new training partner as Tom got in touch in the afternoon to see if I was training. As I hadn't done anything (apart from 3 games!) in the last week, I thought I'd better show willing.

I decided it was going to be a HI session but couldn't decide whether to Fartlek or run. In the end I decide we would run for 6 minutes, take 2 minutes off and repeat a further 3 times. I stayed with Tom for the first 250m then fell off the pace and over the course of the next two repetitions he lapped me on our 680m field.

I kept a fairly steady pace around the field and seemed to cover the same distance each time we went around, even if Tom did virtually have to drag me through the third one. Tom's off to maine Road for an FA Cup tie today and I'm heading to Ilkley Moor (without protective headgear). I'm aching this morning and I hope I can get through today and tomorrow's pre-season game for two of our Sunday League teams.

Last night, 1064 calories, max 99% (cheers Tom for pushing me!), average 80%
