Hi TheEd,
Training has been going good. Easy runs on Saturday and Sunday, with my 5 x 1km session today.
The session details are below:
1km: 5:24 (HR:131 bpm)
2km: 5:05 (HR: 151 bpm)
3km: 5:10 (HR: 150 bpm)
4km: 5:18 (HR: 156 bpm)
5km 5:23 (HR: 157 bpm)
I realise that the splits are a little quicker than prescribed, but I felt good for the whole session. The last km (5:23) was slightly uphill compared to the others, given that I cannot access my local track due to Covid.
Next couple of days are:
Tues: Easy
Wed: Easy
Thurs: Rest
Friday: 5K paced run
Does this seem ok?
Have you any idea of potential pace to aim for on Friday’s paced run?
Many thanks as always,
Finny
I should have also noted that I would like to start extending the length of some of my easy (time on feet) or longer runs.
