Had another great run today, once again it was a Marius Bakken session.
20 mins at 1/2 marathon [6.04]pace followed by 10 x 45 sec at 10 k [ 5.44] pace.I felt confident and in total control of the session and hit my target pace of 6.04 for the 20 min tempo run, a few mins easy and i did the 45 second efforts round a half mile hill loop along Trafalgar Rd.
I finished feeling energized and fresh!=1.00

Just think If an 80 year old guy can run like that, then anything is possible :]
