Hi TheEd,
Here is the recent update:
Sunday rest
Monday yoga/rest
Tuesday
Fartlek 4*5min w/1min easy
splits
1. 1,11km pace 4:27 hr 160 (max166)
2. 1,14km pace 4:26 hr 161 (max168)
3. 1,13km pace 4:24 hr 162 (max170)
4. 1,11km pace 4:18 hr 162 (max175)
Doesn't seize to amaze me how much energy the fast sessions give in return! Loving it.
Felt at the same time fun, challenging and controlled. The shoulder thing comes and goes, would say it's stress related, will work from that angle and trigger point it to release.
Have a few thoughts that I wanted to run by you.
There is no race planned for Sunday, also might be going skiing and ice-skating same weekend, so the question if I shall opt for a fast 5k on Sunday morning to shake things off and see where I am at? As much I would love to go all in - I also want to seize the opportunity for some winter sports - as this doesn't happen so often in the southern Sweden. So I feel that whatever I run on Sunday is not going to be very demonstrative, as the form most likely won't be fresh, and the snow and ice on the roads don't make it fun either. What do you think?
Also, I've noticed that I have this habit of holding my left thumb inside the fist. At the same time my hr chest strap tells me that my ground contact balance fluctuates 0,5%. Is there any connection, or am I unconsciously compensating for some other imbalance?
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and coaching!
Kindest regards,
Stacy.
