Last Run before Sunday.

Yesterday while reading CR I looked at the "SMH-last run before Sunday" thread and came across Freespiritfitness's posting about triathletes who do 5-6x400m to increase blood flow in the legs and thought 'I bet I know what's on at run club tonight'. I WAS RIGHT.

After warmup, stretches and drills(where the theory is the sillier you look, the better the drill) Tim described the main set. 2x400m firm, 5 mins of hard straights/float the curves, 2x400 firm, 5 min of 30sec hard/30sec rest, 2x400 firm and 3min 30 sec hard/30 sec rest. For those of us doing the half we swopped the 2 30sec sets for 800 easy each time. We finished with strength and stretches.

Another night of solid work, chat and laughter with running buddies. At last count there are about 9 of us from run club doing the Half and quite a few of the others are coming to cheer. Should be a good day.
