Post injury - wanting sub 40min

[dale_8888]

Hey TheEd,

I am willing to give it a crack. The easy running at the moment is a little frustrating as it is so slow with the HR however I know that it will develop over time, so I will give it that time to develop!

Once I get back in May I'll give your program a crack however I am fully committed to the running now (want my sub 40min!!!) and I will be very limited on time being on course and what not. So, (hopefully) I will have enough time to do everything but I was still going to follow the running to a T.

I feel like I am not doing enough these days. I was doing ~18hr training weeks before and now I am doing around 6 with the running however I still feel like I am getting slower. This is why I feel like doing more as 6hrs per week training is light on for what I am used to.

Anyway, today's easy run I did on a treadmill, 1% gradient, just left it at 6:31/km as I know that is roughly where I end up anyway.

km pace av HR max HR
1 | 6:31 | 136 | 149
2 | 6:31 | 141 | 145
3 | 6:31 | 141 | 148

4.62km, 30:07, av HR 140.
