Hello TheEd!
This weekend I'm going to the mountain with my girlfriend to have a little bit of nature, walking and photograpy
As it would be difficult to do the paced 5K there in an unknown terrain I moved the session to this night. So tomorrow no running and on Sunday I'll try to find a hole to fit in my 1H easy run. It will be nice to run through the mountain, it's a pitty that my girlfriend is not into the running thing
Ok, so as for the 5K paced run, It went pretty well! Today I woke up a little bit sluggish because I slept 8h (I think I work better with 6 to 7h) but after a few hours I started to get in the mood and today I'm definitely feeling better than this last days. Stomach issues are disapearing (still some feelings but better) and feeling better in general. AM pulse still a little bit high though (52-54).
Today I ran the 5K in 17:52 and I think it's a little bit of an improvement comparing to the last 18:18. I went all-out, which maybe is too hard for the purpose of the session... but is also the same I did in the last one
Here is the activity:
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/177105861
And the summary:
1 3:40.5 1,00 3:40
2 3:40.7 1,00 3:41
3 3:33.3 1,00 3:33
4 3:29.6 1,00 3:30
5 3:27.1 1,00 3:27
Also 3K easy with 3 strides as a warm up to get to the place and 3K again as a cool down to go back home.
I have compared to the last session and this time (without thinking about it before) I've run from slower to faster while last time I ran all splits quite evenly. Same circuit, only difference is that today it was noon and last time was in the morning. I'm kind of a night-owl person so this may have had a little positive impact in the performance.
Pulse range quite similar in both activities, today's a little bit higher (Max. 186, Avg. 177) but I also ran faster so its quite in the line.
This is 3 weeks ago session if it may provide some feedback to compare:
