Ok, I did the 4K time trial!
It has been quite an odyssey. I tried to perform the test on the track but I couldn't take the bus because it's out of service today for being holidays. Then I took another bus that brought me to the middle of the way and got to there jogging slow to warm up just to find that the track was also closed :duh:
So I went down again and did the test on the industrial estate that it's next to my home where there is little traffic and I had to rely on the GPS. Feeling quite fine and rested just before the test.
I'm a little bit disappointed with the result, here it is:
Distance: 4.01 Km
Time 14:24
Avg. Pace 3:36 min/km
Avg. HR 177
Max. HR 188
1K Splits:
1 3:41.3 1,00 3:41
2 3:38.3 1,00 3:38
3 3:34.1 1,00 3:34
4 3:29.5 1,00 3:30

And the warm-up:

Temperature was 15 úC sunny and a little bit of wind, 18 kph average.
On Garmin Connect there are all my activities since December 2011. All my activities since January 2010 are on Runkeeper at:

That can give an idea of what I have been doing the last year. The fastest 10K race I did on 31 December was at faster pace than today's 4K time trial, so that's why I'm a little bit disappointed, but well I hope that with this training I will get to there again
