Build-up for 10k race and HR advice - aistis - 28-04-2009
Yes, garmin measured.
The pain in under/top of knee cap. I try to ice and stretch hamstrings.. No pain today still.
Thanks,

keep icing and consider looking at this
Runner's knee
Definition: A softening or wearing away and cracking of the cartilage under the kneecap, resulting in pain and inflammation.
to see if there is anything related

Hi TheEd,
Yesterday I did not run since I have played basketball at lunchtime and football in the evening.. Today I continue with the program done an easy recovery jog:
Time: 31:06 min
Distance: 5.30 km
Pace: 5:52 min/km
HR: 149 bpm
After football my hamstrings were stone tight.. but the knee pain seems to be gone. Today leg muscles are quite sore, but I will be fine for tomorrow 1hr run and then 5k on Sunday.
Cheers,
Aistis

drop a stone on your toe tomorrow and your leg pain will be gone
all quite logical
hope aches and pains are gone for the weekend

Hi TheEd,
I would like to race 5k on Sunday and I wanted to ask if it is ok or should I just run 5k at steady pace (4:05 etc.)? (I have a 10k race planned for next Sunday and was wondering what effect would it have if I raced 5k)
Thanks,
Aistis

Once you have developed you would be able to race both weekends however if you do so now you do run the risk of affecting next week's 10k
consider running at 4.05 pace and then see if you can accelerate the last 1km
this should still leave you feeling OK for next week

Hi TheEd,
5k today went quite well i did 19:35 on a flat course avg HR 191. I tried to keep steady, but for the last km I got involved into racing with another guy and therefore the last lap is faster. Laps: 4:01 4:01 4:00 4:04 3:29.
Thanks,
Aistis

aistis, that last 1km of the 5k certainly was swift
