Attempting sub 50 10K - denali - 17-09-2010
TheEd,
Ran the 5K paced run today at a comfortably hard pace.
day 10
45 min | 6K
day 11
5K paced run in 26 min 51 | Average heart rate 173 (86%) | Max heart rate 185 (92%)
Warm up 20 minutes jog, cool down 27 minutes jog.
Like I said in previous post, the 5K paced was prescribed for tomorrow, but did it today since I had to go out of town tomorrow.

TheEd,
I realize I love tempo run
, I wish I can run more of this type of training runs. Overall I feel happy about the run. I think I can probably maintain the pace for a 10K race if I run one next week. Which means my 10K right about now will be around 53 min 40. With one more cycle I can go sub 53 or better, I am hopeful.

great .. be patient as it will come naturally if you roll with consistency through the cycles
enjoy

Hi TheEd,
Reporting back with my 5K race this morning. Did it in 24:03.65, this was time on my watch, haven't got the official time yet.
The splits are in mile:
1st mile in 7:09.77, pace in min/k was 4:27 | AHR 189 | MHR 197
2nd mile in 8:20.27, pace in min/k was 5:11 | AHR 195 | MHR 197
3rd mile in 8:15.48, pace in min/k was 5:08 | AHR 198 | MHR 204
last 270.02 ft in 18.13, pace in min/k was 3:41 | AHR 203 | MHR 203
Looking at the GPS data the total distance seemed a little short, but maybe GPS wasn't that accurate either.
I am happy with the 5K time. If the course was accurate, I like my chance of a sub 52 10K in the next cycle.

I kind of doubt the course might be a little short, official time 23:50.34ï¼Åplaced age group 1st out of 19, overall 32 out of 250, woot!

TheEd,
I wonder what pace should I run my 3x2k work out this cycle, still 5.10 per k? Maybe I should still do 5.10 since last cycle I have trouble doing the 3x2K in that pace. Or maybe I can do 5.05?
Appreciate the help!
