ahr:130 max:143 slept:6.5 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 16
3 laps of the outside with the Purcell's, all 3 of them. Nice easy pace this evening warming up, was happy with that, plus 1.5 laps of the inside but no strides this evening.
Lovely evening for running.

Track intervals 29:23 [5] 7.58 km (3:53 / km)
ahr:157 max:180 shoes: Nike Lunaracer+
6 * 800m
At least i've company this evening and definitely made a difference. Ran with Rob Snr and Rob Jnr, joined for the 2nd one by a 15/16 year old, decent runner with serious potential, he'd no trouble staying with us.
Recovery was 400m active recovery.
2.36 (2.13 recovery)
2.38 (2.19 recovery)
2.37 (2.21 recovery)
2.37 (2.15 recovery)
2.37 (2.21 recovery)
2.31
I pretty much did all the pace setting, apart from the last one where there was a bit of messing going on. Felt good and very happy with how the session went. Lungs in much better shape this week and HR not bad either. Rob's target was 2.40 but I knew that wasn't going to be the case. A lot of our 800s had a faster 2nd 400 so that's good.
On the last one I started off in front but on the back straight the lads went past, we were a few seconds ahead at 200. I tucked in behind for the time being, wanted to be consistent, but then with 300 to go I moved into the lead again, and in the last 100 Rob Jnr came past but felt there was no need to beat him to the finish. Didn't exactly want to do this sort of time for the last one, wanted consistency, but still wasn't in any difficulty doing it.
My legs felt funny during the 5th 800, not sure what was going on, but were grand for the last.

Road warm up/down 20:34 [2] 3.72 km (5:32 / km) +13m 5:26 / km
ahr:135 max:150 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 16
Around Castleisland to warm down, all the Purcells again along with Siobhan. Rob said afterwards that she pushes the pace, and to be honest she did, but pace was grand and HR also good. More concrete than i'd have liked. Knees not too bad but right foot sore.
