Easy session

Another muscular workout programmed by Miguel tonight. It was a lovely evening with the sun surrounded by a blue sky and the temperature still pleasant enough to run in comfort.

I was late as usual and had to chase the others being last out of the changing rooms. There was quite a large crowd present, with all the trailers back from La Queue lez Yvelines and the 10km racers back from Rosny. Fabrice and Régis were back running and I chatted with them for a while not having seen Régis at least in a month. Nick and Mireille caught up as well and we had a few words before heading back to the stadium.

We had warmed up over a 5.5km course through the forest and now it was Miguel's turn to put us through our paces with sit ups, medicine balls, hoops and cones. It was supposed to be a speed session, but I didn't come away feeling as tired as usual so I was a little disappointed. I should have gone off a run a few intervals over 400 - 600 metres, but the truth of the matter was that I didn't have the energy.

We ran these little workshops and then did a few tours of the stadium before finishing with 5 diagonal sprints across the playing field.

About 7km all up. Not stretching enough tonight. Thursday will be better.
