Morning Run: Short, sharp intervals
I just finished a 6.363km running that lasted about 0hh:35mm:0ss !

The weather is turning warm this week and could reach 29C. Ideally I need to be getting out before it warms up too much, but it depends on when I wake up. It was not too bad when I got out today. It may be warm enough for a swim later.

I went for the 30-20-10 intervals today. On my warmup an older guy went zooming past me. Not sure I have seen him before, but he was shifting. My intervals start once I get to the cycle path and do not have to worry about crossing roads. It is just annoying that there is some building work for a new school going on halfway to Stotfold. I had to run on the road a bit to avoid that. On the way back I turned off to head across the fields.

The intervals finished as I left the gravel track onto the actual fields, and so it was a jog home. I thought I had updated the workout to keep going until I pressed stop, but it ran out and I managed to start a new one. Hence the two runs for today.

It all felt fairly good today, but maybe I need to push a bit harder on the faster sprints. I ought to be able to get down to 4min/km for those few seconds if I can move my legs quickly enough.

I am making use of my son's new pull-up bar in his bedroom doorway. Can only do a few, but hope to improve on that. I have been fairly good on doing strength workouts on days when I do not run recently. My son has caught up with me on height at 18 and may outweigh me soon as he is doing a lot of working out. He is not into running though.

I see that you can log 5km times on parkrun that do not count towards your personal record, but keep the community going. I may try to do one this Saturday.

Run free and stay well.
