Hi Ed,

Did the day 3 session today 5x2k, it went quite well!
Location: local track / light wind / 7 degrees

1) time 8:00
max hr 169
av hr 161
R90 hr 79

2) time 7:56
max hr 164
av hr 173
R90 hr 75

3) time 7:59
max hr 169
av hr 180
R90 hr 87

4) time 8:09
max hr 170
av hr 178
R90 hr 83

5) time 8:12
max hr 171
av hr 179
R90 hr 75

Total running time 40:16

This was pretty much all I had, just fell away on the last 2 sets but not to bad.
Its a full 2 mins 40sec faster than my previous 5x2k 1 month ago! :whistle:
My recovery heart rate is quite low, I read on another post somewhere that you said if it drops below 120 you are not doing it sufficiently hard.

I have been running my "easy runs" a bit quicker, now at around 5:00 min-5:15 per km with heart rate around 130-140. It seams to be givinng me the improved stamina.



Glad to read you and the ducks are settling in.

thanks
