Hi TheEd,
I'm pleased to report progress is being made. The 2km session today felt great, really comfortable chugging along at 3:38/k and then pushing harder for the last two reps. It's a pretty big step change from the last cycle.
Last w'end I did a 5km time trial in 17:38 - a PB with an asterisk next to it. I had to stop briefly for a truck to pass when crossing a road, I paused my watch for a few seconds before continuing. I'm looking forward to having a crack at a proper PB at a park run in a couple of weeks. (Official best is17:51.)
Perhaps the colder weather (we're getting our first taste of winter here in Aus - not cold by your standards) is making it easier, but my running is feeling really good at the moment.
