Death Reps

Save the best 'till last, or maybe the hardest?! The hill rep session is definitley the hardest of my week and today was no exception. I warmed up for 15 minutes with various stretches, bounds and jogs etc. then hit the reps out. The climb is about 1 minute and today was pretty muddy. I sprinted up before jogging down for my recovery. I did this for 30 minutes, covering 4 miles and feeling pretty strong considering the conditions, before a nice 15 minute warm down. This gave me a total distance for the day of 6.5 miles. This is the last session of the week (hense hardest goes last!) giving me a total mileage of 21 miles (over 3 runs) which have been pretty well earnt (not many easy miles!) and should hopefully leave me in good shape for Sunday for Stanbury Splash - looking forward to it!
