Hi theEd,
Thanks for the feedback on the previous will be interested to see what else you have in store for me instead of the 400's!
I've been spending the last couple of days doing the easy runs nothing really to report there but no issues at all
Well here's the times I did for the 6x1km intervals today
1. 3:34.3 max HR 178 Recovery HR 145
2. 3:32.7 max HR 179 Recovery HR 143
3. 3:33.8 max HR 182 Recovery HR 148
4. 3:34.5 max HR 180 Recovery HR 153
5. 3:39.5 max HR 180 Recovery HR 153
6. 3:35.3 max HR 181
Didn't exactly go into this session rested due to getting later to bed than I expected last night but after missing the 5x2km didn't want to miss out on this. Anyway I decided to try this out on a flat piece of quiet road and run a 1km stretch out and back for the 6 intervals. By the 4th I was finding the going tough and breathing very heavily by the end of the interval and was questioning what the hell am I doing to myself
. I kind of lost focus for the 5th interval a bit in otherwords thought I was beat and was going much slower than 3:40 and effort felt very hard to pull it back just under 3:40. For the last one I just gave it all I could and was happy to hit the 3:35 more or less.
Good tough session and was glad I was mentally able to pull through it am knackered now but nothing a good nights rest wont cure. No niggles or pains yet at least will see how I am tomorrow
I'm also planning on doing a 10k at the end of the month on the 28th so will be able to see where I am in my training.
There is also a 5km local race this Sunday that I was thinking of doing but not racing it and just following the plan for the 5km paced run at 19mins
Anyway looking forwards to the feedback as always!
Marco
