First hard speed workout of the training cycle. And it felt really hard. It doesn’t run when you run each of the first 6 intervals of 12 too fast. I just couldn’t settle in and find the pace. Took too much effort to get fast so ended up too fast.

Of course when I start up my new training block for the final push to my A goal ultramarathon it’s just going to rain every day.

Speed isn’t given — it’s earned.
Lap after lap, mile after mile, pushing past comfort and into the zone.
This is where limits disappear.⚡🏃♂️

Chilly speed workout at the park. But a beautiful sunset. I captured just a touch of the colors as it faded after my run.

This week I ran 8x1 min “hard” for #speedwork - haven’t done speedwork training in months. This felt great afterwards despite being tough in the second half. About 3.3 miles total with warmup and cooldown. #runchat
Runners: Doing more speed work doesn’t always mean getting faster. 🧠🏃♂️
This article from Running Well explains why—and what to do instead.

Most runners do too much speed work—and it backfires. 😓
Burnout, injuries, plateaus… sound familiar?

Mm k. So, speed work is a lot tougher on the treadmill than on the track. Think I might have to rethink how I do this. Think I hit 7:50 pace at one point. #speedwork #halfmarathontraining #13point1 #runnersofbluesky #womensrunningcommunity #runchat #IrunforAhmaud
Was not keen to do this today. I had back pain today when sitting and I had to sit most of day operating equipment. Took some Tylenol and got it done though. 5km at 9mph (4:08), 5x 60sec sprints (3:10). HM race Sunday 😬

LOVED being back on track for an interval session tonight. Hard work but got it done thanks to my club mate who dragged me round.
WU + strides, then 6 x 1200m, followed by an 800m and a 400m rep, then the cool-down.

Last bit of speed work before track meet this weekend. As soon as the treadmill stops Willow is demanding sweaty cuddles ❤️

Time for some speed repeats! 🏃♂️💨 yesterday’s session: 3KM+(200m-200m-400m)*3+3KM. Let’s build that speed and endurance!

Tuesday: #SpeedWork
Every Tuesday I would go to the track and do speed work put on by Fraser Street (Run Crew in Vancouver).
Example: #BrokenMiles
1000 at HMP, 600 at 10KP–1 min rest
1200 at HMP, 400 at 5KP–1 min rest
1400 at 10KP, 200 at Mile Pace–1 min rest
1200 at 10KP, 400 at 3KP–1 min rest
After weeks of endurance training, I’m adding back some quality sessions… and wow, it’s tough! 🥵 My legs definitely forgot what speed feels like. 🏃♂️

Had to bail 4 miles into a 5.5 mile interval run today. Not feeling great. Hopefully tomorrow goes better ✌️

New week, new training plan! 🏃♂️ Kicking off with 3km endurance, then mixing in some 200m and 400m repeats before getting back to 3km endurance work. Feeling good and ready to push forward! 💪

Turns out doing interval runs at -2 degrees is somehow easier! Maybe because I was so keen to keep warm ❄️🥶🧊 My chin still froze though!
