Introduction

After several years of struggling to squeeze in more than a couple of runs each week, and aware that the final years of my athletic prime were passing at a clip, I resolved to run every day for a year. Didn't manage it in 2006 (made it to then end of june), so hopefully the discipline of this blog and the £1 challenge will see me right in 2007.

March 29th - Track session

Rib very achey all day, and tightness spread into my shoulder and back. In dire need of a supermarket run, so decided to go to Gala and plod through the track session and visit Tesco afterwards. Had to miss all the dancey-prancey warm-up stuff at the start because of the rib and jogged a couple of miles instead.

Session was three sets of 600, 400, 200, 400, 600 with 200m jog between reps and 3 minutes between sets. Ran the first set steady with Graeme Murdoch then gave it a bit of welly on the second set, and a bit more on the last. Whole right side of torso tightened badly immediately after last rep and gave me serious gyp for an hour or two. Had to do shopping and navigate trolley one-handed. Try it sometime!

Times were 2:02, 1:20, 37.5, 1:22, 2:03; 1:56, 1:17, 31.7, 1:17, 1:57; 1:58, 1:14, 32.7, 1:13, 1:52.
