After a rest day yesterday, legs were still feeling quite heavy and calves a bit tight but headed out for the Hurts 4 x 10min speed session today. Huge crowd and King James's last formal Hurts run before he heads off travelling for 12 months. I reckon there were about 50 people out today including Tom, MC, Mike Race, Laura, Dave. Russell, Charlie and Adam. Took it very easy at the back with a few other half marathon recoveree's and still managed a respectable 4.16 average pace although the last 500m brought back some painful memories of Sunday's course. Rep pace went 4.16, 4.14, 4.09 and 3.52 as I was determined not to get passed by James and Adam on the last one. Stats for today are at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/180848976.
Have committed to the Striders 10k at North Head in 2 weeks so will be my first head to head against Adam over 10kms since 2005 - should be fun. Checked past results for that race and I did a 43.09, Jim did a 43.43 and Adam managed a 45.06 - could be a slight difference in times for this race and might have to see if Jim can make it for old times sake.
