A couple of days ago we came back from Tenerife. Even though it was too busy on the track and we almost had to fight for a lane or hurdle, I still had a good training camp.
I concentratedmainly on running, weights and general conditioning. I also did two shot sessions and they went so well that I decided to open my season with a shot competition on May 9.
I did bring any specialist spikes to Tenerife. Only my trainers, marathon shoes, middle distance and sprint spikes and shot shoes were in my bag. When it is warm and the body feels good you are always tempted to do things that you shouldn’t do yet. By leaving my high jump, long jump and javelin spikes at home I couldn’t do any jumping sessions.
After our return home I had a couple of days rest. I needed that because I was very tired. Yesterday I picked up training again with weights and sprints. My weights session are going very well. After yesterday’s session I can honestly say I didn’t loose any strength, I’m maybe even stronger than last year. Next week we’ll do a test session, so we’ll see.
