Ok, managed to get an official bib for the race (sold out early). We'll see how it goes. I'll pick your brain about pacing next week as we get closer to the date.
Ran an easy 10K @ 5:30/KM on Monday and did the 6x1K yesterday, splits below:
1 4:07.9
3 4:04.1
5 4:02.9
7 4:04.6
9 4:04.4
11 4:02.8
It was hot out again but I felt pretty good this time (much better than on the long run). No running today, on location all day but will try to get an hour in tomorrow before heading off for a long weekend.
I have the 5k tempo to do this weekend but I'll be in a pretty hilly area - any thoughts on how I should use this weekend to prep for the 21K next weekend? Should I just run a hilly 5K tempo at 4:10? Or should I do a longer tempo but at HM pace?
Thanks,
KK
