Planning a rest today and Monday then;
Tuesday: 30 mins easy - heart rate below 150?
Thursday: 30 mins easy - heart rate 145?
(Talking of heart rates, I've been checking resting HR before I get out of bed in the morning over the last 14 days or so. It's typically 60bpm with the lowest being 57bpm - and pretty sure my max seems to be 185.)
Saturday: I could run the actual 10k course that I will be running in 4 weeks to get familiar with it. (got my race number yesterday :yikes
The route is tarmac/pavement and pretty flat.
Should I start out at say 5:20 -5:30/km (or slower?) for the first 7k? then try to get to 4:50 - 5:00 from then? dunno?
Should I use an energy drink from say 6k? since I seem to still be running at highish heart rates.
Thanks.
