Hi ED,
good steady approach ticking all the box so that is a reassurance. One question that I do have is the heat adjustment for the speak work?
I know that I loose time over 85C approx. 8 seconds per k going off a heat adjustment calculator I found online. Do I still need to keep my 1k and 2k sessions at desired race pace as I am not sure this is optimal for me in the conditions.
I found that I can run the times 3.20 per k on the 1k repeats and 17.30 for the pace run but not sure what the real value of this is in cool conditions.
The old problem I have is the 2k reps I've tried them as 1 mile repeats before and tempo run as the effort is as mentioned as hard as a race.
other then that might try a 5k race on the 26th June try and push the 5k times down first. And go from there. All for now regards jon.
