[QUOTE="s_k_s, post: 772119, member: 27169"] Tues 17/2 - Surface = pavement/tarmac That was probably the worst session of this programme. Didn't manage to get out till almost dark so energy levels weren't great after a long day at work. 1st interval was good and the pace was good too. I was getting into a good rhythm and pushing off from the forefoot. Stopping and re-starting just killed the whole rhythm. Struggled to get going again. Thought I'd start slowly but the slow plod felt awful and my back stiffened up. Thought I'd wait until 10 minutes before picking up the pace but the body just refused and in the end I was glad to just finish. In hindsight I should have just stopped for a minute or two and done some stretches rather than just plod along. The stretches and the recovery might have done some good. Definitely need to eat something 60 or 30 minutes before going out if I am going to go out at the end of the day. Shoulders hurt quite a bit at the end. Frustrating that not able to run faster. The mind refuses to accept that i can't do 9 min miles as I used to but that was 9-10 years ago and without diabetes. Just got to accept it and keep at it as fitness wise it has been a case of starting from scratch. Next session going to try and run at a pace of 11 min on both intervals. Day 32 - 56 mins - Run 30 mins Walk 1 min Run 25 mins - Completed [COLOR=#ff0000]01. 30:00 - 10:29 - 160 (2.86 miles)[/COLOR] 02. 01:00 - 19:24 - 148 [COLOR=#ff0000]03. 25:00 - 11:55 - 147 (2.1 miles)[/COLOR] Total Miles - 5.01 miles Duration - 56 mins Avg Pace - 11:10 Avg HR - 153 bpm Calories - 567 [/QUOTE]
