Today was the first speed interval session of my new training plan that aims to get me to a sub 40 10k at the We <3 MCR race on July 13th. It was a tough one. Not sure why, just wasn’t feeling it today. Got through it though, 15 intervals of 10mph with a recovery speed of 8mph. Well. Sort of recovery.

It was also was a great opportunity to test out using my new Garmin FR620 on the treadmill. Don’t even ask how much it’s supposed to cost, I am lucky to have benefitted from a very favourable staff rate at Up & Running as well as cashing in the combined birthday and Christmas presents from both my parents for 2014 and chucking in my Sandgrounder prize money! Thanks to the accelerometer and getting used to using the heart rate monitor I can now use the Garmin to track my treadmill sessions too and don’t need to bend my brain trying to remember distances and speeds to record my progress. Yay! \o/

After that session I was happy to award myself a portion of this bizarre avocado based dessert! Nom nom nom. *burp*

    Glittermouse is a visual artist, educator and practising Buddhist who also likes a bit of a run from time to time.  In 2014, she realised others could benefit quite a lot from her reflections on running trials, tribulations, triumphs and trip-ups… so she added another volume to her package of blogging adventures.
