you seem quite strong, with a few cycles on the program, you should definitely see an improvement
on we go

Thank you TheEd! I have been surprised by this too. Had a good rest day yesterday, well no leg work, just some core and upper body strength work last night. Legs feel perfect this morning after rest yesterday and are bursting with energy today!
Back out again tonight for a longish easy. Maybe a 30 min easy tomorrow depending on how legs feel and into the 5km paced on Sat morning :great: From Saturday's results we can evaluate and decide what 10km programme to get on from Wednesday!
Re-lacing my running trainers really made a difference on the run on Tuesday night. They feel very secure on my feet now!!

Too hard I know but was comfortable at finish. Lots more in the tank. It's just hard sometimes to hold back :taped:

Used the Parkrun this morning as my 5km time trial in order to determine traing plan leading into first competitive 10km in three weeks time:
Km
01: 3:50
02: 4:10
03: 4:10
04: 4:10
05: 4:28
20:48
Average pace 4m10s per km
I do not know where on earth this came from!!!! I'm still in shock that I was capable of this
ok. The first and last kms were shocking haha but look at 2,3 and 4!!May go onto the sub 40 plan sprints and intervals and 22:30 paced fartleks and take it very easy around that... not quite sure yet.
Thoughts?

stick to the sub 45 minute schedule to start
the intensity of the sub 40 minute 10k program can be worked towards
http://www.time-to-run.com/training/10k/sub45.htm
so if you find the 1st 3 week cycle more comfortable, you will then see how everything is working out without too much stress
what your thoughts on this?

Hi TheEd,
I do not think I made myself clear in my last post. :duh:
I will be sticking to the sub 45 programme but would like to aim for slightly faster times on the 4 x 2km and 6 x 1km speedwork only. I do not want to push too hard too quickly but do not think the current times are going to push enough. I was thinking of reducing by 10 sec per interval or so. nothing too silly.
