Just Do It!

On recommendation of my old Brit friend Kate (who is now a US citzen!) Mike and I headed to Nike town to their Tuesday night speed session.

When I arrived their were so many pacers with clipboards just waiting to say hi and get you in a speed group!

Basically they determined a running group for you based on your current mile pace/5km race. You then got given a colourcoded band so you knew who your pacer was!

There was so many fit looking people it was a bit daunting! However the team were uber friendly and encouraging and you even had the opportunity to test out the nike shoes for your run! - See my pic of the word 'sock' shoes!

I think I'm more of a Adidas gal 🏃

All the runs took place on the lakefront. We jogged out there from the store and began some simple but useful warm up drills.

Then we did;

1600, rest 90secs.

1400, rest 90secs.

800, rest 60.

600,

400,

200.

I started the session debating just sneaking back to the condo but ended it feeling glad I'd accomplished it.

Not sure my calves agree.
