Quick one before work. I kind of needed it to wake me up as i’m feeling fairly tired. Legs good.

Long work day
Didn’t sleep well, probably because I was trying too hard.
Nice jog around the fields. There doesn’t seem to be any damage after yesterdays session. Hamstrings fine.

Running (Fundamental Hill Circuit) 1:21:00 [4] 9.7 mi (8:21 / mi) +396m 7:25 / mi
slept:8.0 shoes: Hoka speed instinct 2

3 x circuits. Same hill as last time. Again, in some way fun, also hard but not in a horrible way that would make be dread them next time. I'm doing the intervals on time rather than distance which is good as I can aim to hit certain landmarks on the hill for each exercise. I managed to not slow down on the first 2, but struggled to hit the landmarks on the 3rd. I did feel strong though, even on the last one. Hamstrings fine during session.

Hamstrings much better today. Ever so slightly tight whilst running but really a big improvement. Felt rather good on the whole. Strides a lot slicker too.

Loop through the woods with Matt. Same story with my hamstrings today. They are perhaps a little better than yesterday though. Enjoyed the speed variations. Felt good.

Running (moderate) 1:30:20 [4] 13.25 mi (6:49 / mi) +125m 6:37 / mi
slept:8.5 shoes: Hoka speed instinct 2

Out & back on the High Peak Trail again. Despite an especially lengthy warm up I felt really stiff at first and hamstrings really tight. It seemed hard to get up to a reasonable pace but after sticking at it for a while things get easier and my legs loosened off. Taking the 2 small hills and an accidental fast mile out of the equation I averaged 6:40-6:50/mile for the first half and 6:20-6:40/mile for the second half, which felt fairly comfortable. I did start to feel my hamstrings tightness up a little towards the end again.

Good session. Easing back into it gently.

5 PM

Running (easy) 1:14:00 [3] 7.3 mi (10:08 / mi) +280m 9:03 / mi
shoes: Inov8 X-talon

Around the fields/ woods with Matt. My hamstrings and right calf were quite tight but eased off (but didn't completely go away) as the run went on. Energy levels good. Strides were a lot better than the other day but I felt like I couldn't quite open up fully because of the hamstring tightness.
