nice going Drus .. that is the problem of a hilly route, it often takes out more than one can gain
great to hear you happy, you have the right approach and the progress should be sustainable
congrats

Hi TheEd,
I've finished off my three weeks of easier running, with two weeks of your suggested build-up to finish. Very pleased with my 4km TT y'day, sneaking under 14min for the first time.
I'll be back into the main cycles this week, aiming for 3:40-3:45/km for the 2kms.

wonderful Drus .. coming back stronger and faster
an ideal situation, looking forward to the 2k feedback
this session often does prove to be tough and then it gets easier come the 1k session
onwards

Hi TheEd,
Felt good today through the 2kms. I was aiming for sub 3:45/kms, probably playing it safe to a degree, but good to feel relatively comfortable throughout for the first 2km session after the build up.
Now onto the long run and 1kms, aiming for sub 3:30/kms.

Hi TheEd,
I enjoyed the 1km session this morning; recording my best times to date. Perhaps my legs were a bit fresher from a day off y'day (today was day 9 of the cycle).
Long run last w'end of 18km; 5:05 min/km and 144 avg HR.

quite a session there DRUS .. nice going
how are you finding your long runs?
would you consider increasing the long run up to 20k at around 4.50 to 4.55 per k or do you feel that would impact too much on you?

The long runs are nice and cruisey. I'll pick up the pace a little as you suggest and see how it goes.
Cheers,
DRUS

Hi TheEd,
I'm pleased to report progress is being made. The 2km session today felt great, really comfortable chugging along at 3:38/k and then pushing harder for the last two reps. It's a pretty big step change from the last cycle.
Last w'end I did a 5km time trial in 17:38 - a PB with an asterisk next to it. I had to stop briefly for a truck to pass when crossing a road, I paused my watch for a few seconds before continuing. I'm looking forward to having a crack at a proper PB at a park run in a couple of weeks. (Official best is17:51.)
Perhaps the colder weather (we're getting our first taste of winter here in Aus - not cold by your standards) is making it easier, but my running is feeling really good at the moment.
