Mon andTues
Monday set countdown timer on phone for 5mins. set of on KB hills, got through 3 rounds and decided something wrong, sure enough timer had not started required a second press. Doh! Expected two and a half rounds so to complete three was a bonus. Expect it took longer than 5mins so that is good will set timer for 6.5 - 7mins next time.
If you could bottle lactic...
Tuesday. 10x20 kb deads before work. 4 mile mildly undulating run in the vibrams, distance moving northwards nicely. May even do the Ashby 5 in them. Just under two weeks away. Need to try some specific speed work in them. Also muscular soreness of the calves is becoming less each time.
One observation that has become apparent. I get knee pain the day after running in shoes but in the vibrams.
Jason pleased with the progress

Running hill reps
Markfield 10k on Sunday.
Did not want to do too much tonight, just keeping things ticking over. Mile warm up. 4 x 1/4 mile hill reps and warm down. Ran in the Vibrams. My running partner was bemused to say the least.
Jason still smiling

Kettlebell hills.
Tried a routine from one of my respected blogs. MC running the bells.
So simple yet brutal.
Kept it simple, 10 reps per bell 8,12,16,20,16,12,8 70 reps in total 920kg. Tried 1 run through to establish a time 2:08. foolishly did not warm up just went straight in. Fool. Recovered.
Set myself the goal of just 2 rounds. Completed 4:15. Battered. This came as a big shock. I truly believed my stamina was higher than this given the amount of snatches I have been doing of late.
However, there is built in rest periods in that routine. No rests here. Target is 15mins non stop.
The build up of lactic/fatigue in the legs was unbelievable.
Lesson tonight is ignore swings at your peril. Thanks to MC for getting me back on the path.
The path is simple but it's not easy.
