22miles in 12 hours, well almost

Did a session of 400's yesterday, not at the track but on a stretch of cycle path that is exactly 400m's long that we discovered last week. Now if anyone from the Netherlands ever happens upon this blog and wonders why you would have a cycle path only 400m long, the only reasonable explanation I can come up with is to accommodate runners who can't be bothered making the long trip to the track!
Anyway it went pretty well with 10 in an average time of around 69secs. Only did 8 last week and was absolutely wrecked doing the last one although I did a hard run the day prior to it. Managed to get out early this morning and had 11miles done by 7.00am although I'm feeling pretty sore and tired now. Have a race friday and Sunday so doing the old front load the week trick to bank mileage.
Tuesday: 3.7warmup + 10x400 in 69 with 85sec recovery + 3.5warmdown
Wed:11.1miles @ 7.25 HR149
