Training Log Archive: Lewis T

Went out to do a 5km time trial. Ran to Platt Fields. Figured out a loop which was best with the least amount of wind. Did a nice warm up including working out a nice pace I was going to try and keep. Felt pretty good doing 3:25 min/km. Set off well and clocked 3:20 for the first kilometre but the wind was really frustrating so I stopped half way through the second kilometre. Ran back via Birchfields and found a nice dirt track I can do intervals on.

Theshold run. started slightly slower than threshold and then started to wind it up.

Did 15 minutes of different core exercises then 15 minutes of ankle work on the wobble board. Finished off with some stair sprints in the house which was fun.

Cycled into uni, then into town and then back home.

Progression run. Started out really easy.

1km splits:

5:52
5:00
4:45
5:15 - track with ice
4.30
5.20 - back onto the track with ice on it
4:10
3:46

Felt good all the way. Legs felt a sore from yesterday for the first couple of kms.

Easy run to the station.

Short jog and then drills with everyone.

6*750m/2 minute recovery. Good session but found it tough. For the recovery I had some map sections of the British Night champs area with a course on it. I went through different routes and picked out big features on each leg.

Warm down with everyone.

Got back and did loads of stretching while I was making tea.

Same session as I did last week with Josh.
