Run like the wind

Track with Bernie tonight. I ran there with him – he’s done six marathons, a couple on a weeks training! Was great to get back to some speed work. On advice from Bernie for those doing Marathon training we did mile reps. 3 in total with a 3 minute recovery between each mile. 4 laps making up a mile. We ran at 30seconds below our Marathon pace – so for me this was 7:30. The aim is to get used to running miles at a faster pace than your Marathon pace so the real Marathon feels easier?! I raced Nick the last 100m – he won.
