30 minutes easy with 6 strides

Training began in earnest today, as I let behind the boring monotonous easy base building runs of the last couple of months.

The next few weeks are still going to be pretty easy going, especially as my legs get used to my new forefoot/midfoot landing.

Today’s run was really good. 10 minutes warm up followed by 6 30 second strides with 1 minute recoveries, and then another 10 minutes to cool down.

What was really noticeable was how much easy it was to land forefoot when running the strides.

My calves are really tight today - probably due to an overexertion at the gym yesterday. I’m booked to have a sports massage tomorrow. A slight treat for myself as I’m off of work this week!
