Improving 10k with regular training

[MMS]

Hi TheEd,

Just finished the third cycle this weekend with a 5k time-trial in 19:59! It is my best time for this distance and I never felt this fast before.

I am considering going thru an easy week right now and I´ll explain why. Last week, my 3x5min session was pretty hard. I was supposed to go around 4:20min/km that morning but could hardly hold 4:40min/km. The following day I didn´t run and last Thursday ran 40 minutes feeling much better.

So one week of easy runs might just be what I need.

Last Saturday 5k time-trial:

Mar 9th – 5K time-trial – day 19
Night Run
Temp: 22C hard rain

Km|Time
01|03:57
02|03:59
03|04:02
04|04:03
05|03:58
Tot|19:59

Cheers
