I completed day 15 today with the 3*5min at 10k pace. It was fine, avg HR 139 - max 162. I feel I have a lot of energy these days, and it has been very interesting to follow your programme as diligently as I have these last three weeks. I have never done this much running before (or ran as fast - for some of the sessions), but it seems like the programme is structured in such a way that my body can handle it.
Now there are some changes coming up. I'm going on holiday to the US and Europe in about two weeks' time. I will then start running outside again, which I haven't done for a while. So I expect that I will have to take it easy in the beginning. Wouldn't come as a surprise if my treadmill is not 100% calibrated, so we'll see as to paces etc. But some of this hard work should pay off I would hope...
Also I am moving back for good to Europe end of July. And have signed up for a 10k race on 25 September which I'm very excited about.
Finally - just a question about the rest of this week. There is obviously no race coming up this end by the end of this week. So does this have any implications for the rest of this week's work. What do you suggest? And how to make the transition to the next cycle, which I will be doing for almost two weeks, before I'm off to colder (of perhaps not so cold these days) climates.
Many thanks for all your advice, it has been a very interesting and rewarding experience so far!
