Hills...
August 4 6pm 20 degrees light breeze
3km run at base pace 10 hill repeats 3km run
What I ate prior: Quaker oats granola bar
What I drank, two glasses of water
How I felt: legs still slightly stiff from last Sunday's long run 34.5km
What I wore, running tank, shorts, wright sock and Asics Nimbus V
Who I ran with: Running Room
Running buddy during course Donald
How I felt at start: sligtly apprehensive and slow start to the hill.
First hill repeat fatigue and stiffness. natural feel did not start yet
By the third repeat, I finally established in a rhythm. Fatigue was still present but waning.
Pace: Up and down at same pace. Remained consistent and chatted with Donald.
Did not stop once nor took water break.
Final hill, sprinted vs Donald (won- yay!)
Post race, stomach felt queasy. legs felt heavy quck recovery from sprint. Relaxed as the weather cooled (overcast + slight breeze). Waiting 10 min then proceeded to final 3km run to the store. Sprinted (10km pace) in the final 1km to the store. Queasiness subsided.
Following day: legs still feeling heavy.
Emotionally: Good but will feel better when legs have fully recovered.
On the menu for tonight: Interval training at the 1 km loop in the park with the running group at the gym.
Concerns: need to log in more mid distance runs.
