Hi TheEd,
My 2km session today was humbling. After my fast (for me) 5km I was full of confidence and aiming for 3.45/kms, 7:30 splits. The first three reps were comfortably hard, then I set out for the fourth rep and just couldn't get my legs turning over fast enough.
I wanted to finish the session so I shuffled through the fifth rep in an embarrasingly slow time; confidence now deflated.
Like you've said before, bad days/sessions happen, I'm just glad it didn't happen on race day and am now looking forward to redeeming myself in the 1kms!
