Friday tempo run

At midday i headed down to tunks park for 3x15min at marathon pace with 3 min recovery.
It was bloody hot but thank god it was cloudy (for the first couple anyway). The first one was reasonable. The legs were quite tired, but i reached the same point as last weeks best effort 25 seconds quicker. I had my start and finishing point at the bubbler, so i made sure i had plenty of fluids. The second rep was a little harder to hang onto the pace. Was about 5 seconds slower and I was really heating up now. The sun decided to come out for the third rep as i headed off. I really felt i was off the pace, but at the half way split i was only down 2 sec on the first rep. From here it was just a case of hang on till the finish, so i pushed the pace and finished 4 seconds quicker than the first rep. Best session for a while. 16km
