Hey ed
just did the 5x2k session.
I saw that some people post the HR at the beginning of the interval, but I don't know how to get the exact one from garmin, so I'm getting it from approximately where the interval begins from the HR graph.
1- 7:35 avg HR 173, max HR 182, start HR 124
2- 7:39 avg HR 181 max HR 188, start HR 128
3- 7:40 avg HR 182 max HR 189, start HR 128
4- 7:42 avg HR 182 max HR 189, start HR 131
5- 7:48 avg HR 180 max HR 187, start HR 136
my goal was 3:50/km on all but started at 3:47 which was a little to fast I think, so ended up doing a painful last interval at 3:54.
I'm starting to run my intervals at the park as the surface is a little more forgiving on my legs than the asphalt where I usually run and as there's no track around here, but I'm guessing it makes for slightly slower times as it's a 'sandy' surface.
I'm gonna run 21km on the long run this week then, but is that enough? First week of the program is about 70km at the paces that I run, which sounds good, but then second and third week come to only about 54 and 48, which seems low if I want to switch to marathon training soon and do well. I have little running experience (only ~2years), so I'm just basing this off of what I read online, which is usually not the best source for this stuff, so I'll follow 100% what you tell me, just thought I'd ask![Smile Smile](https://www.time-to-run.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.png)
