Making the heart pump

Spent another evening interval training on Tuesday. Unfortunately, I'd left it too late to head out onto the local park, it was pitch black and I didn't fancy the odds on potholes vs. my ankles. So I ran my original 5k around the streets, 2m30s minutes quick, followed by 2 minutes slow, over and over until I made it home. It resulted in me finishing the 5k in just over 25 minutes. Given how slow I ran the recovery sections, I'm pretty pleased with that.

As for tonight, I'm resting up my left shin again. I'm not totally comfortable with it at the moment and want to give it my best shot at 18 miles on Sunday. Instead, I cycled home 15% quicker than I would normally, to give myself a bit of a work out.

Planning on going for a jog round the park tomorrow morning before work...
