It rarely happens that an interval session hasn’t been inputted in by my coach, Eilish. And if so, I send across a quick message to her and it’s done just as quickly.
I hadn’t messaged so this morning, I flipped to last year – a week before another half marathon – curious to see what the intervals looked like last year.
They were amazingly hard. Wow, I thought. That looks so tough. At any rate, the job was done, I had seen them, and now I had to do them.
Undoubtedly, no question, without Coach Ravi and the kids, I couldn’t have done it. These were long efforts and they joined me in a relay kind of effort to give me company nearly at each lap. My gratitude is indescribable and visceral.
