With a reduced Hill set this morning, I was looking forward to doing my last hill set for a while. Although as Brett said, after 3 months of hammering yourself every Thursday from 5am onwards its kind of sad... i pushed pretty hard and my legs were fatigued(very) so It was a good effort to get the times above.

Anyway we extended the ride on the flats a little with only 2 hills. Tired and a massive headache today made it tough. Ive got that burning feeling in my eyes. Not looking forward to track tonight!

Well after the initial mental challenge of just starting the set was put aside, sore and tired I started running. First few reps by myself and a few with Tom before doing the last on my own. I ran quicker than the target but I kept it very steady and it was one of those sets that really felt easy. 3:25's are no longer anything but a steady run and it feels great to be able to just knock them out on fatigue knowing I could have done another 10 (except for the sore calves), all bodes well for a couple of weeks.
