Straights and Curves!!
The best thing ever. You quicken up on the straights of the track and slow down around the bend. Suddenly running is so much easier. I can see that it's all psychological now. When I slow down on the curves, there's an illusion that I'm taking a rest. I've fooled my body into thinking it's a rest too! This has been the most encouraging training night so far. There were no negative thoughts in my head tonight, and I could _almost_ say I enjoyed it.
Apparently 'straights and curves' in interval training is great for helping you tackle the hills on the long runs. Bring on the hills :)
