May 21st: Easy 30 min run @ 5.37/km. Avg. HR: 140
May 22nd: Easy 30 min run @ 5.25/km. Avg. HR: 140
May 23rd: Rest
May 24th: 5k paced run
2,5 km @ 4.53/km. Avg. HR: 163. Max HR: 169
2,5 km @ 4.48/km. Avg. HR: 170. Max HR: 173
This run did not feel good at all, as you can probably read from the HR. I could not have done another 5 km at this pace. In fact, I struggled to finish the workout and would happily have ended it at 2,5 km. I have no idea what went wrong today. The 3x2 km and 6x1 km sessions have felt really good (and they`ve been faster) and today suddenly I felt awful. The only thing different from other days I suppose is hotter weather (around 23 degrees C today).
Guess I`m both surprised and a bit disappointed.
Any views on this, TheEd?
