Rivvy Speed Session

This morning I jogged down to Rivington for a bit of a speed session, although nothing too hefty as I'm still recovering from Saturday!  I did 2 x 0.5 mile, 4 x 0.25 miles and 8 x 0.13 miles (I wanted it to be eight of miles but my Garmin can't really do this so it was ever so slightly over).

You can tell by my splits that I was getting really tired towards the end (the penultimate split and the one before it being much slower than my best 10k race pace!!!), however I did find something buried for the very last one, probably because I was relieved it was soon to be over.


0.5 miles          3m, 52s       7.44 min mile
0.5 miles          4m, 05s       8.10 min mile

0.25 miles        1m, 53s       7.32 min mile
0.25 miles        1m, 53s       7.32 min mile
0.25 miles        1m, 56s       7.44 min mile
0.25 miles        1m, 54s       7.36 min mile

0.13 miles        57s              7.19 min mile
0.13 miles        58s              7.27 min mile
0.13 miles        1m, 01s       7.50 min mile
0.13 miles        1m, 00s       7.42 min mile
0.13 miles        1m, 00s       7.42 min mile
0.13 miles        1m, 05s       8.21 min mile
0.13 miles        1m, 06s       8.28 min mile
0.13 miles        59s             7.34 min mile

On the jog home my right leg started to go numb around the shin which is never a good thing so I had to stop to stretch it out for a while.  I did a good bit of stretching and icing when I got home so fingers crossed it's OK.

Total Distance - 5.4 miles
