Speedy me

This morning I had my first speed session. I use the expression with a degree of caution given my general running speed could only ever be described as slow or a slightly grayer shade of less slow. These are the choices my body offers.

With that in mind I headed off, stopwatch ready, to do a 30 minute session. Suffice to say after the first five minute sprint like momentum I was gasping for breath and thinking this can't be right. I stuck with it though and was really quite chuffed with myself when I'd finished the full thing.

On the downside however, turns out I'd missed the ten minute warm up and cool down afterwards. Oops. Roll on next Wednesday's speed session ... not.
