Bloody hell, another good run to report - this is getting addictive! Despite sore quads from the previous day's brill sprint, I took to the treadmill for my self-prescribed tough hill session, and completed 10km at 6% gradient in 65 minutes, running it faster and far more comfortably than I thought possible. Felt sensational afterwards - the biggest kick of endorphins in possibly years. In fact the little critters made it difficult to sleep that night, and I'm still buzzing some 15 hours later. Look! There goes an endorphin now -->
<--- crazy critters...
Certainly my confidence for the P2P just went up (literally?) a huge notch!
And G'man, yep I may just do that - I've been avoiding sprints/intervals for a while, but with knees, shins and Achilles all behaving themselves for the moment (despite some fast runs of late) I might persist with the weekly fast run and see how we go.
Sweder, I cannot believe you couldn't already run a good P2P. Any more hills and you'll be contending for a very high-ranked age-category finish, methinks. Which of course means you'll have to buy the drinks...
