A huge thank you to everyone who has sponsored me so far, it's been a great response. Hopefully the momentum won't die down, we've still got a way to go!Today was another fartlek (relaxing jog interspersed with pacey running for about a minute) day. I rolled out the lunchtime 4 miler and set off on my way. The key, to the pacey sections in fartlek, is timing. By which I mean, spot a runner in the distance coming towards you and work out when to raise the tempo so that you pass them at optimum speed. You will neither appear to be out of breath, nor breaking a sweat but you will pass your target at a suitably unnerving pace. Obviously, make sure you've turned a corner before you slow it back down.
