Manly May
Kicked off the month with a short (4km) tempo session. The knees are really good at the moment, so this was a chance to push the speed boundaries and just begin to get the old joints used to the idea of a bit of rapidity. It's still a long way off race pace, but it's a start. And it felt good to get up a head of steam again.
I was helped along by some of Sweder's suggestions from the earlier Stranglers' repertoire. Much of their first album Rattus Norvegicus is great running material, and my track du jour was a bit of a toss up between the album's opening track Sometimes and the final track, which actually gets the award for today, Down In The Sewer. All great stuff.
Back to a more regular mid-week session tomorrow. Off now in search of alcoholic hydration remedies...
