Running long (Long Run/Terrain explore) 2:00:04 [2] 19.4 km (6:11 / km) +439m 5:34 / km
shoes: Icebug Acceleritas4 (no2)

Running with Jonty, Gene and Immy (for a bit at least). Exploring the top north knob of Riverhead to see if it was suitable for Orienteering, only one word to describe it: Awesome! Nice mix of open white forest, low vis runnable and pushable, runnable green. Super keen to see it mapped, looks large enough/tricky enough for several big big events too! Me and Jonty went and had a good look at another area as well and found it was even nicer (but nowhere near as big).

Running warm up/down 13:48 [1] 2.5 km (5:31 / km) +60m 4:56 / km
shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

Running hills (Short Hill Reps) 5:00 [5] 0.8 km (6:15 / km) +100m 3:51 / km
shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

5*1min trail hill sprints (160m ~20m climb, 95% effort) with walk downs in between. The bush reserve was really nice today, beautiful tracks for trail running, sadly it's not big enough to do any long runs in :( Squeezed it in between study for my exam later today...

Running warm up/down 11:16 [1] 2.2 km (5:07 / km) +14m 4:58 / km
shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

Running intervals (Fartlek - Roads) 41:35 [5] 10.1 km (4:07 / km) +120m 3:53 / km
shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

2x 5,4,3,2,1 (1) with 3min between sets. Changed my diet back today and definitely felt a lot better - suspect that the problem was indeed an allergic reaction to the bread I was eating of all things! Sorted out my shoes today for JWOC 2016 too, excited to see how minimalistic and speedy they look, can't wait to try them this coming week!

Running warm up/down 13:00 [1] 2.5 km (5:12 / km) +30m 4:54 / km
shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

Running intervals (Track sesh/fail) 10:46 [5] 3.2 km (3:22 / km)
(sick) shoes: Saucony Guide 8v2

Started off ok, idea was 800/400 with 800s a steady 2:44 and 400s a faster 72 (10s faster lap pace). First set was fine, hit 2:44 then 71. Felt a little odd on the next set and only hit 2:46 and then 76!. Last 800 tried to refocus but was starting to feel very weird and then on the last lap my head suddenly got really light headed and I almost fainted! Managed 2:46 but on finishing I felt and looked terrible so that cut training short!
Tried to work out why and our thinking was it was a lack of sleep or a nutrient or an allergic reaction. Thinking more carefully later I realised I have been eating different bread for the last week and felt crap in the afternoon sessions after eating it for lunch - it seems I might have been allergic to something in that :( Will find out tomorrow when I don't eat it and do a tough session!
