20 laps at Calwell Oval

Today:
Laps distance: 8.9 kms in 40' 46" at 4' 35" per km
Cool down dist: 1.15 kms in 5' 23" at 4' 40" per km
Weather: sunny, temp 28 degrees, humidity 40%, wind NW 10 kmph
Week:  35.5 km,  Jan & Year: 282.85 km

Perfect day on the oval except the grass really needs some water. Recent sunny spell of weather has quickly dried out the grass and the moisture under the surface is going quickly.
Otherwise, a great day for 20 laps in lane 5. Ran bare feet as usual at a nice solid tempo pace. Stopped for a drink and change of direction after each 5 laps. Felt comfortable all session and a big improvement on last effort on 30th Dec. And certainly much better than the 1 kms I did a week ago on the gravel track behind Bonython.
Pace was good, not quite 10 kms race pace as Ewen suggested would be near flying around this oval.

  • I think it's 'the hill' that slows times at Calwell. It's a bigger hill in lanes 5 and 6 too. I wonder how big? 2 metres over 200? And after 20 laps that's quite a bit of climbing.
