Hi TheEd,
I ran the 1K intervals today as suggested, they felt very hard, probably as hard as the 2Ks last week. My times were:
Time Avg Max Rest
00:03:52 162 169 132
00:03:56 164 170 137
00:04:00 164 170 140
00:03:56 164 170 143
00:04:02 164 170 143
00:04:03 164 170
It was seriously windy today. Intervals 3, 5 and 6 had a significant headwind due to the out and back course I was running. The headwind legs required so much effort that I just wanted to stop and give up. Additionally, I felt as though I was struggling to get my breathing right towards the end, do you have any tips?
In terms of reducing the running a little, does 30 mins tomorrow and 40 on Thursday sound acceptable? Or should I cut back more?
Additionally, this weekend I am probably going to struggle to fit in both the 5K and the 1hr run due to family commitments, if I have to choose one, which one should I do?
