Notes
Good tempo run with Oscar in the Park. We wanted to keep the same pace as teh last time but add on 1 more lap. Oscar led out the first 3 laps once again and he ran perfect lap times (5.26, 5.25, 5.24). After that I took my turn at the front and increased the pace a little bit every lap. I didn't push too hard at any stage but gradually increased the pace. I did it more to make sure the pace didn't slow down more than anything else. The first 3 laps I couldn't get into a good rhythm even though the pace was ok and I was feeling fine. I kept going either too slow or too fast. Oscar kept a steady pace so I was able to follow him ok.
I really felt good over the last few laps even though I knew I was pushing myself a bit towards the end. My running was very strong and smooth at that stage. Really good tempo again. Will concentrate on either going faster or longer after this
