Day 13 Rain, Coughing And The Track

Durham Interval Training
2.71 Miles
4.36km

Hi Folks,

Well tonight I was trying to fight off this stupid cold and cough.However, that did not deter me from the track session tonight at the Elvet Striders running club. Tonight we did two laps warm-up jogging the bends and striding the straights like last week. Then we did five lots of the following:-

3 minutes at threshold pace
1 minute walk or jog

Threshold pace is, in a nutshell your race pace. It is a run carried out at an intensity or speed just below where your body would not be able to get rid of the acidosis that builds up in your muscles. You can only run above that pace for a short amount of time.

To make matters worse it was raining and was freezing cold. However, it was a good session if a little shorter than normal
