Maclennane 16 Apr 1:10pm, 16 Apr 2024 32,238 posts	0 Maclennane bbc.co.uk there's the aim for this season, 3.25 as far as last year's throw
SPR 17 Apr 10:24am, 17 Apr 2024 43,993 posts	0 SPR I don't get what you mean Maclennane? Yesterday's MD session was 2 x (1000 @~3p (2 mins), 5 x 400 @~15p (90 sec)) 5 mins rec. Tough one and this had more volume than the previous two weeks, paces were within tolerance though and no significant drop off. First set was all me with a teammate hanging on, second set another teammate dropped back and took the lead for the 1000 and for 1 and 3 in the 400s. The respite from taking the pace definitely helps as not sure I'd have been able to sustain the paces in the last set without it but also the other teammate wasn't in a position to take reps at the front really even though he managed to stick with me all the way round. Splits 3:11.1 70.8 70.9 70.7 71.0 71.7 3:11.5 72.2 71.7 71.4 70.1 70.3
Maclennane 17 Apr 4:16pm, 17 Apr 2024 32,242 posts	0 Maclennane Yeah, sorry, I was a bit incoherent. There's a new discus world record, which is roughly 3.5x what I threw last year. So that's my new target
SPR 18 Apr 12:13am, 18 Apr 2024 43,996 posts	0 SPR Still not getting it, maybe put the new target in raw numbers? Unless it's a joke about you targeting the WR?
