We are back to repeat miles (1600s) this week. It has been mentioned before, for anyone doing Lost Sheep or a 70.3 (or even a straight marathon) this is a key session. The 1600s should be run at about your 10km race pace (not you end of standard distance 10km, straight 10km). Also as mentioned before try to keep even pace across the 4 laps and even pace across the three 1600s. Usual warning, if you are racing this weekend it is probably not the ideal session, cut it to 3 x 1200m.
Meet on the Sonia O’Sullivan track in the UCC grounds on the Mardyke at 7:00pm
