Trying to get quality over quantity at the moment. Playing safe with the injury, I got in an 18km (3×6) yesterday all the time getting slightly quicker each time I do one, even in the surprising heat that was 23 degrees in the gym yesterday. I wasn’t impressed but had the fan and a training partner for company. I had a strange mental wobble in the second rep for a few km and was pleased to have some one next to me rating away at 18. The third and final set was completely different – how the mind works.
Today it was time to go red again so set up for the 6×1 min [1 rest]. Its a cheeky little number this one and is unforgiving even at just 1 minute intervals. The aim is to commit from rep 1 and see it our as fast and consistent as possible. I am still to find that perfect consistency and need to be a tad braver in the first few reps.
Much tougher than Monday though but the right way to do it for the required training effect.
Going green again tomorrow with some more distance.
