3 Apr - 800m (1/2 mile) intervals x 6

Quite a toughy today. 
The aim was for 8:03 intervals, but I really couldn't sustain the pace and I managed the first in 8:11 but the others being 8:42, 8:17, 8:47, 8:45 and finally 8:58 :o(  .  
I ran with the new orthotics in the shoes and could really feel it in my hamstrings on the sprints.  I've never been very good at sprints anyway (usually better at endurance than stamina)  and I am also wondering if the legs were still tired from the 20 miler on Sunday.  Well a few good excuses there :o)    but I did give it everything which is the important thing  I can just be thankful that there are no cameras around when doing sprints, I'm sure they wouldn't make for a pretty picture
