We have four weeks untill the race on June 20th, this week I´ll entry (is this the word?) the race. So, it´s possible I can have two 3x2000 sessions before that.

This weekend you can consider a race or time-trial

and then the following week you will roll towards June 20th for the next race

should all work out

That´s perfect.

So, instead of the long run I would could either try a 10k race or 4k time trial, right?

In your opinion, which one should be chosen? 10k or 4k?

Do the 4k then we have something to compare to

Hi Ed,

Unfortunately I couldn´t entry the 10k race on June 20th because it has already reached the limit of runners. Sad I´m very disappointed because I really wanted to run this night race. Probably missed it during vacation.

I´ll check for another race soon.

I was thinking of keeping current schedule of taking a 4k time-trial this weekend. What do you think?
