Last time I ran tempo laps on the oval was on 18th Jan when the grass was really dry and the surface a  hard due to no rain. Recently, summer has gone, we have had rain it seems like every few days.
The running track on the oval is in top shape, just needs a trim be to perfect.
I ran the usual tempo/cruise interval session which is 5 laps in lane 5, then a short break. Changed direction after a short rest & drink. A few exercises while resting just to keep moving.
Started slowly then I all came together with the pace increasing to a comfortable level that I could maintain without too much effort.
Last few laps at good pace for a soft grass surface without shoes. I do like these sessions bare feet in summer. In winter, the grass is too cold & I'm too soft.
Finished with a cool down to make day distance total over 10 km, minimum requirement at the moment. Then while resting, 50 sit ups, a few dips & push ups to complete the session.
A bike ride down and back counts as the warm up and cool down. Nice day with clouds hiding the warm sunshine.
I thought after yesterday's slow run today would be a struggle, but after a while it was good to get the legs moving a little faster.
