fartlek

Did a fartlek today, Thursday, 12th November, 2009. Started with an easy jog of about 18 minutes, then did five rounds of fartlek, which means for a distance i upped the pace and jogged easy for equal distance, all the while increasing pace progressively upto the last round, which was a longer fartlek. Finished with an easy jog for about 15 minutes. This was the third day in succession i was running, after a long time, last times being in Uganda, where i was running 6 days a week on a beautiful course, skirting a golf course, overlooking the Victoria Lake.
