Improving 10k with regular training

[MMS]

Hi TheEd,

Already started a new cycle last week after an easy one before (4 runs, two 30min and two 45 min).

I had to make a small adjustment putting the 2000m session on Friday in order to celebrate my wife´s birthday the day before. As a result the Long Run (14km in 1h23) was this Sunday. Tomorrow, things are back on track with the 1000m session.

My 2000m session last Friday night was really great. I was able to go faster and add another rep.

Mar 22nd – 5x2k @ 4:10 90s rest
Night Run
Temp: 25C

Rep|Time
01|08:16
02|08:19
03|08:19
04|08:20 (+10s rest)
05|08:20 (+10s rest)
Tot|41:34

Hardest session so far! I had to use +10s rest before 4th and 5th rep, but next time I believe it won´t be necessary. Very pleased I did it.

I´m going to enter two 10k races in May: one is on May 11th and the other in on May 24th.

Cheers.
