So up again this morning - dogs walked and then out to the shed on the model B upping it to 20 minutes and try to control the HR - all went well apart from the sweat - wow - it was bad - quite humid here at the moment though

20r20 (+4s/500) [3:00] 10r20 (30r20 TT pace)
Or as I like to call it - feckin horrible!
HR strap still not kicking in - 1:41.6 is current 30r20 PB
OK so I went a little too fast at the start and maybe that and trying to correct my technique and possibly a little fatigue from the weekend made this worse than a "normal" training day - but by the last 4 minutes I was blowing out of my $r$e almost literally. The last three and a half minutes I went back to my old "drive through the balls of my feet" technique otherwise I just wouldn't have finished - yes I probably just have stuck with technique and let the pace drop but even then I'm not sure I would have had the power left to finish as the new technique for the moment takes more out of me.
I took the last stroke with about 5 seconds left on the clock but just let it tick over - on finishing I tried to work out how I did a straight 30 at that pace ?
