Thanks, TheEd! I feel good. Sleep has been good and I have made all the sessions. However, last two days has been easy runs and today I rest, which feels really good.
Any recommendations on pacing for the 5k session tomorrow?

Hi Thor, great to hear
for the paced run, start off at 5 minutes per k and then go faster the last 1km according to how you feel
do not go too hard, be controlled when increasing the pace
enjoy

May 24th: 5k paced run
2,5 km @ 4.53/km. Avg. HR: 163. Max HR: 169
2,5 km @ 4.48/km. Avg. HR: 170. Max HR: 173
This run did not feel good at all, as you can probably read from the HR. I could not have done another 5 km at this pace. In fact, I struggled to finish the workout and would happily have ended it at 2,5 km. I have no idea what went wrong today. The 3x2 km and 6x1 km sessions have felt really good (and they`ve been faster) and today suddenly I felt awful. The only thing different from other days I suppose is hotter weather (around 23 degrees C today).
Guess I`m both surprised and a bit disappointed.
Any views on this, TheEd?
