HuRTS Pyramid session

A number of the regulars missing today, so that the front group was just Tucks, Muz, new chap Jasper and me. Second group was led by LF Charlie with Ray, Vlad (taking it easy before Ironman), Dom and a few others.

Really good session today. I led them all (other than the final 450m) with Tucks sitting on my shoulder the whole way. Muz is still feeling the after effects of Six Foot while new chap Jasper seems to have a bit of raw talent. The session was good in that it was sufficiently uncomfortable from the beginning and yet the times were very consistent, particularly the 3 lap efforts which can blow out. Times went:

83, 2:48; 4:11; 5:38; 4:11; 2:42; 72.

Brings up an overall average of 3:03 per km for the total 7230m. Still a far cry off Dec 11th (87; 2:50; 4:11; 5:27; 4:00; 2:37; 71). It was hot today though - 31C. Heel feels fine but calves are very stiff from the eccentric loading. Sod the Ultrasound guy.
