Kiss Chasey
6.15am, 7 * 1 km fartlek circuit, Centennial Park
Being close to the shortest day of the year I could hardly see anything at the beginning of training.
This was a new morning fartlek session borrowed from afternoon squad training. There were two surges and two floats in a 1 km circuit. Simple but hard. On the first lap Liz and Jenny ran like they stole something, and I was followed by Rocket Rod who's still feeling his way back after a lay-off. Rocket dropped off after the first lap of 3.47 and I had another 6 laps to attempt a fruitless pursuit of the women by myself. I didn't catch them. I lapped a few people though.
The whole session was run at close to race pace, and I was wishing I'd got more sleep, less world cup football, and hadn't had red wine & lentils last night. I was reeking of garlic and onion as well which explained why most women ran for their lives when I approached them from behind. Finished in 27.01.

How about you come and run behind me in my next 3k TT after doing the wine/garlic/onion/lentil thing the night before.
Isn't that a band? I was wondering what the steam was coming from the park when I left for work this morning.
No sympathy...all self induced ;-)
That was tough this morning... but fun. Nothing like having your time written down to motivate you!!
Glad to see you're not giving up your old habits of red wine and lentils and chasing women. Hope we'll see you soon.
