Managed to get down to Hillsborough for session with Hallamshire boys. Was good hard session from Keith 2x5mins, 5x1min, 2x3mins last two reps really hurt. Even got reacquainted with lactic acid, made me realize most of my sessions are too easy on my own. Was good Rob and Oli were there as would have hard to keep decent pace without someone to push you. Hardest rep was the run back up the hill to the car, promised Jodie would be back at 7.15pm, almost made it too!
