Had a gd slp and slight Carbo loading.
Planning to do a fast long run , FLR... vs LSD.. haha..
Arranged to meet up with Lex to cover 25k at MacRitchie, a very hilly terrain.
Excellent weather, slight drizzle at the start when we started.
Training Session: Fast, Marathon pace 25k Long Run at MacRitchie. (Max Aerobic Effort)
Started out as usual, with me taking the lead. Used to running from the front, therefore i do not mind doing the "dirty work". Lex is very light and exp in that terrain, with him in the front, i may not catch up.
1st 4k of the northen loop in 15:30 and we hung on the pace to finish the 1st loop of 11k at 45mins. ~4min/km pace. We took a short break and drank some water that I prepared before shooting off the 2nd loop. Felt rather good at the start of the 2nd. But reality set in after a while. Lex took off from me that the rocky rds, ~ 4.5k into the 2nd loop. I was pushing but could nt catch up.
In the end, we cover 22k fast and did a moderate 5k recovery. It was great to have him doing this difficult session. Great training. Target to do this every 2 wks.
