Found the 6 x 1K session a bit harder today; mainly due to very strong wind taking it out of me! Ended up not pushing the final 2K for that reason - and managed to keep nice and consistent and very similar to the last session (7 seconds slower), despite the extra difficulty, but heart rate was lower for the first few, and higher for the last few so probably ran it about right!

So, nearly into our final week, with just the 5K session this weekend at any speed and the 3 x 1 mile session next week to decide the pace. What is the aim of the 3 x 1 mile session, presuming it's quite an easy session with the race 5 days later?
