Pre brekkie with Ali on the Seat. Crags and then round, misty, rainy and windy but really nice once I'd woken up.

Track session with Carcas, Jack and Ali. Snuck on and had the place to ourselves and a weird guy taking photos - very nice.
3 x (2x600 (90secs), 3x300 (70secs)) with 6/7 mins in between sets. First set went by soon enough and felt reasonable. Harder in the second made worse by dodgy stomach but had a pit stop before the third and got through. Didn't struggle that much mentally, just trying to hang on to the others (particularly on 6's). A few more sessions like these and the sharpness will come. Conditions better than expected, just some puddles on the track. On the first 6 of the last set breathing felt very strange - felt like airways were getting quite tight. Definitely felt more limited by leg speed than anything else but that will come.
