Can't sleep

After a hard raining session, do you ever find that you can't sleep? It's 12:30 and I can't sleep!
Tonight's session was fun, I really enjoyed it (there has been some good stuff recently, thanks Karen!). After Tuesday's 1500m reps (which went well for me, I averaged around 7:25/7:30 for the 4 reps), it was refreshing to do some 200m reps. The session was 200m reps with reducing recovery time (90s/75s/60s/45s/30s/15s). I missed the Balke test when we did it the week after the marathon (if I remember rightly I could barely walk that day) so I've been "borrowing" Linda Aird's times/distance. My aim was 54 seconds per 200m and if at any point you went beyond your target then it was time to bow out gracefully, it was all about quality not quantity! I managed the whole set 4 times, mainly at 52/53s with the final set more like 50/51s.
So a combination of pushing myself hard and a late dinner means here I am, blogging when I should be sleeping!!!
