Week 35 - Good & Bad

27/08/12 - Rest Day 28/08/12 - Free Run Cranked the treadmill up to 8 mile pace and off I went for the full 45 minute session. It was boiling in the gym and the sweat was already running down my face after 2 minutes on the treadmill, It was like someone was holding a hose over my head. It was like training in Cyprus all over again. Within the 45 minutes I aim to get over the 5 mile marker, I know I shouldn't really train in miles, and look at durations but that's a target I set myself every time I go out running. I suppose its a fault by me, because if I run under 5 miles I feel (mentally) its not been hard workout. I know later this week I'm doing hills, and I wont run over 5 miles so will that be a good session? It better be!. This session did get harder the longer it went on, and I noticed my heart rate tipping into Z5, which is a rare thing for me on the treadmill, so perhaps I haven't got over the bug from 2 weeks ago as I am still coughing a bit ...
