Patterson's Curse and Fallen Trees

These nasty little plants are everywhere at North Lyneham ridge, where we train on Tuesdays.

Fallen Trees

Two fallen trees on the track, hard terrain, long grass, hot sun yesterday meant improvising a shady session of twenty second sprints on a softer straight at the back of the ridge.

How We Trained

Seven of us running hard for twenty seconds with only forty seconds to jog back didn't leave any time for talking, so nothing to report! We all did twenty of these. Ruth usually won the jog back to the start.

Here's Ruth running in the Canberra marathon.

We will continue to do speed endurance training on Tuesdays for another two weeks, and then move to three weeks of anaerobic work.
