Hurdling in Swindon

Another great hurdling session on Saturday. Warmish weather but a breeze down the home straight. Howard had me doing 5 hurdles on the straight with first 7 paces between, then 8.

7 paces was OK, although I had to stretch a bit over the first couple. 8 was trickier as it means using alternate legs. I landed very hard each time I use my right leg and this slows me down a lot, meaning I have to stretch to keep pace for the next.
Worked on this for a few reps and managed to get to a point where I was powering off on landing pretty well.

Got back for lunch and did a 10 mile cycle ride with Liz - very civilized.
