Trainings 38: 25th NOV

Mon: AM- Easy 1hr w Exercises
PM - Easy 1hr (didnt felt easy at all)

Decided to skip the usual gym session on Monday morning.
Wanted to be fresh for the super sets with James on Tue.

Slpt a gd 9 hrs on Sun evening. Didnt have my afternoon nap.
Disrupted by a tele call.

Morning session was great. Held back so that I can continue more in the PM.
However, the PM session wasn't that easy.
Decided to go via time rather than count the rounds.
Finished with 6 strides.

Tue AM: 5k easy, drills, etc....

Morning was a wake up session to burn some calories for breakfast.

Decided to take a half day leave for the rest.
Didnt feel gd at all despite the gd night rest.
Zonk out for 2hrs in the afternoon, almost couldnt wake up in time.

James proposed a 400-800-400 x 3 session.
The worrying thing was the (max) on the 400m to indicate the pace.
Upon his arrival , there was additional shock when we were told there was no rest inbtw the 400 and 800.

Wore my spikes for this session. Felt weird. but I need all the help i need.
1st set was conservative, followed james a few steps behind, careful not to hit the anaerobic zone and turn this session to a pure "400m time trial" and walk home.

72s comfortably as we settle down for the 800m. Intention was 5k pace, which shld be 80s/400m.

The sudden decline in speed resulted in "fainting" spells for the 1st few metres as we try to recover and run.
Tried to cut james but he spd up everything i attempted to. I too have no energy to wack it out.
800m done in average 84s/400m.
The last 400m was about 75s as we finished together.

Average 4mins rest before we hit another one.
2nd set, james was breathing rather heavy as I comfortable took over the 800m set on the 2nd lap.
Same timing we did, 5:15 overall.

Last set was a killer, James was dying by the 1st set while i sat behind him.
Slightly slower at 5:18 overall.

Summary:
400 - 800 - 400 (72, 2:48, 75) x 3 , 4min break in btw.

Jogged back home and my adventurous attitude got me lost again. Ended up in scotts rd, then at rochor beancurd, was really rather tempted to get some of my fav beancurd.

It was a great session. can feel the burnt i wanted to as I grinded out the session.
