10K, workout #18
Okay, today I did strength training, and the plan was to do an easy 10K the day after, but I ended up doing a workout on the track the same day. There was a workout on the program of my athletics club and I thought it would be nice to join. Fun? Yes. Smart. Don't know.
The workout
The workout was a combination of laps on the track, form drills and some games, like jumping on the sound of a whistle, collecting pawns from the midfield, and running laps, throwing a die and getting sweets for the number you threw.

Afterwards
Although the weather really sucked, the training was fun. I cannot help but feel that it wasn't a really focused workout (as in 'building endurance' or 'improving speed') and I don't know what to think of that. On the one hand, I like knowing what the goal of a workout is. On the other, most workouts are pretty serious and goal-directed, so having a more fun and loose workout could lower the tension a bit.
