Ok, just finished the 4x2k session. Data as below:
LAP TIME AVG. HR
1 8:22 160bpm
2 1:30 124bpm
3 8:21 162bpm
4 1:31 131bpm
5 8:22 162bpm
6 1:30 129bpm
7 8:22 161bpm
8 1:30 129bpm
9 1:30 114bpm
I just realized that you wanted 8:40, not 8:20. I must have transposed the 4:20 with the 8:40 and somehow got 8:20 in my head. Sorry, I really meant to follow your workout to the letter.
At any rate, I felt really good today, definitely could have done at least 1 more set, maybe even 2 at that pace with 90 rest. Last time I did this session I was slower but working a lot harder and less consistent. Today felt totally different, much stronger, more in control and I didn't have to look at my watch so much, just felt comfortable throughout. Pretty invigorated by the workout to say the least
Rest tomorrow and long run on Saturday, correct? Since February I've been doing 1:15-1:30 every weekend as my long run. The last long run I did was the beginning of the last cycle, 17.5km/1:35 so I was thinking of doing 1:45 to get ready for the half at the end of June. Does that sound reasonable?
Thanks,
KK
