Middle distance at Mount Piper. My legs didnt feel super fresh after the drive there and were a little sore from thursdays efforts too i think. Felt like i was able to push myself pretty well though especially at the end, and there was a few rough hills too! Lost a bit of time just from my compass bearings being a little off on a few and not looking up enough but it wasn't a bad run. Pretty fun forrest to run through i thought!

15 minute warm up, just jogging and then a few drills

Session felt rool tough! 100m, 200, 400, 600, 400, 200, 100 with 200m jogging in between each. My times weren't too bad but i just didnt feel like i was moving well or fast at all! Possibly because i just really noticed the difference between having active recovery instead of just rest... Had to guesstimate a little with the track markings too a few seem to have disappeared off the grass.

Then about a 10 minute warm down run and lunges etc.

I was prepared for another game at GK but turns out i had a full game in mid court which was nice! Our opponents were ridiculously aggressive which made for an interesting game aha

Jog around ashtonfield trying to focus on my new and improved running style! Super hard to concentrate on it for the whole time and i definitely went back to the dodgy shoulders up and no stride style a couple of times. Stopped for about a minute after half way to give the calves and arms and brain a rest aha.

A few little drills with the hand weights afterwards, my arms felt so weak when i was running!

Really good class! Not alot of recovery at all between tracks so it was prettty tough!

Nothing like a run in the pouring rain at the foreshore along the breakwall, super safe idea! It was a good run though. but unfortunately we had to skip out on strength, it was a bit too wet to lay on the grass in the rain for half an hour, a bit of a shame but we've been pretty lucky so far with the weather!

Minor event out at Belford. There were no flags out so you had to be on the ball but even though it was so open at times i just couldnt actually see the control stand. This made some small mistakes on 4 and number 8 a little worse just because i was extra hesitant, not knowing if i just couldnt see the control or had to go a bit further in the gully. Other than that i just wasn't running hard enough in the middle i dont think, the legs felt pretty exhausted. I enjoy belford though, super fun.
