Tuesday - 10 x 800m (off 1 minute) (lap jog after 5th rep)

First run with new power meter this morning. Haven't had a chance to look at the data yet, but it seemed to work perfectly. Met Scott at his place and jogged just over four and a half kilometers to Rawson Park. The session was 10 x 800m reps (off 1 minute), with a lap jog after the fifth rep. The key today was consistency - it's a long session, so it's important to nail the pacing. The first couple of reps felt too easy, but by the end this pace proved to be perfect. I wanted to step up a bit today, so I led the odd reps, while Scott led the evens. Psychologically this makes the session much more bearable, as in your head you feel as if you are doing one rep 'on,' one rep 'off.' Really happy with the consistency - the reps were slightly longer than 800m (each lap is 410-5m). 2:40, 2:42, 2:38, 2:38, 2:37, 2:39, 2:39, 2:39, 2:40, and 2:43 (average 2:39.5). Couldn't hold onto Scott for rep 10, but the former nine were on the money. Really happy with that. A nice and easy jog back to Scott's place for about 19km all up. Much nicer today, but still bloody humid!
