Timbrell Park Reps 10x500m

I found out yesterday that I was running in the Club Champs for the Striders this Saturday. I'm running an 800m as the B runner with Glenn Guzzo as the A for obvious reasons.

The legs really didn't feel like running fast tonight after doing 26ks on Sunday afternoon.

My reps were 1:42, 1:41, 1:41, 1:41, 1:39, 1:43, 1;39, 1:45, 1:41, 1:43. All done with a 60 second walk recovery. I had a 1.2k warmup before the session and a 1.2k cooldown after.

No rain at all just a bit of southerly wind blowing.

My guess for my 800m time is 2:50. I figure if I can run a 3:30 1k I could do a 2:50 800m. I guess if I'm chasing a heap of faster runners I might go faster.

McMilan says that a 3:30/1km runner should do 800m in 2:40. So 2:50 means that your not trying. ;-)

Good luck mate !

Congrats on your selection Flakey. My prediction is 2:45 but I hope I'm wrong and you go faster.
