Weekend training.

9am at the university track. They describe this as a double pyramid:

Warm-up, stretch etc.

1 x 400, 1 x 800, 1 x 1600, 1 x 800, 1 x 400, 1 x 200.

Then do it all again.

Ran the first 1600, the 'peak' of the pyramid, in 5.36 and the second in 5.58.

This was my first Saturday morning session - never thought I could cope with speed training so early in the morning. It was fine. But hard.

Sunday, a leisurely ninety minute run along the Yarra trail with pick-ups towards the end.

Then an hour walk, late in the day, with Goldie and Huey through Princes Park as the sun went down, shedding gold everywhere amongst the autumnal trees. Beautiful.
