Hi TheEd,
Done! Not quiet by the plan but I think close:
1 600m - 2:07
2 600m - 2:14 (oops too slow!- still not sure with my speeds without treadmill)
3,4 600m - 2:10
5 600m - 2:14 (tired!)
6 600m - 2:12 (very tired, but gave a little sprint at the end)
Rested average 1:50, was just enough.
Over all - tough!! But again - loved it!!
even this time I was by myself - still enjoyed it so much!!What's next?;-)

nice going B .. that pace is faster than you have been running previously and the 600's can be a little painful
1hr run before weekend
and then can we look at either a 4km time-trial or 5km paced run so we can draw a line as to where you are now, please?
followed by another 1hr before quality session next week
Cheers

Hi TheEd,
Not the best run:
4km - 16:18
For accuracy-Done around houses with my Garmin watch. now I think I could push myself harder at the beginning..1h tomorrow and would it be ok to do track on Tuesdays as it works out better for me with my schedule..
I won't be able to run Friday-Sunday as I'm going away again. To Barcelona this time!

Hi TheEd,
What am I doing tomorrow on a track?
My 1h run today will be slow as we have +30'C!
Tomorrow should be fine as it's dropping down to 20'C again.. London weather..

Rest 2 minutes then
5 x 400m Rest 60 seconds pace = 88 seconds
then 1hr easy recovery during the rest of the week

Hi TheEd,
Just from the track.. tired
Ok.. so im getting better with short distance timing, but not yet with longer ones..
1st 1000m - 3:50 just lucky to get that time!
2nd 1000m :3:55 went fast at the begining (too fast!) so slowed down at the end..!
3rd 1000m 3:55 went too slow at the begining... :duh:
Rested 60s in between - was enough.
And 2min rest before 400s was enough too.. I can't say the same for 60s between 400s though! After a 3rd had to rest about 90s as i thought i'll have to run to the l....... sorry!
And times:
1st 400m - 82s
2nd 400m - 85s
3rd 400m - 86s.
4th 400m - 87s
5th 400m - 87s.
I love 400s even if it makes me sick! as much as i hate 1000s..!! im sure im not the only one like this..

all your 400's were quicker so no wonder rest was too short
nice going
when do you think you will run another Friday evening race?
Cheers
