Running before breakfast after running intervals last night = slow pace to start off with and tired tired muscles. Glad I did it anyway and this is the plan for Wednesday mornings since the kids aren't here. Want to try doing some fasted runs to improve my body composition and improve my endurance.
Using my Suunto Spartan Sport wrist HR watch that Marc won at the Trail du Ventoux. Pretty cool watch, lots and lots of options. Too big for everyday wear, so I still really love my garmin I got for Christmas, but to run with and especially for intervals and trail races this watch will be great. It's however more complicated to add trainings to AP. Anybody else out there using a Suunto want to chip in together and sponsor a direct download option on AP?

Intervals with my juniors. We did 4x4min on a trail with 3min recovery. I wasn't moving any faster than the other times in the last 5 years that I have done 4min repeats on this same loop, but it never felt so easy. Actually, I was a bit frustrated because I couldn't go faster, ie. I could not work harder, it was like I was limited to this intensity. Recovered within 1 min after each rep. Strange.
Warm-up and a bit longer cool down all included in this file. First time using my Suunto Spartan sports wrist HR watch, but hadn't set it up correctly yet, so no idea what I was doing with it ;-)>
Finally made it to Pilates again, this class is really good for my whole body posture and strength. Would be a great counter-balance to all the running I do.

Last night my legs felt light, but today it was incredibly hard to run. Right calf very stiff and achy and not much energy for running. I guess I‘m still recovering from Sunday.
