Had a really bad 5K tempo session the other day, really suffered up the big hill in the middle and my heart rate got into the 180s. I felt really weird with numb arms so I stopped (after about 3ýK) - in hindsight this was due to the cold weather which has just kicked in, but it freaked me out at the time.
Easy runs since have been really good, running further at the same HR; and the 400s last night were comfortable at 85sec with good recoveries.
The big race is on Sunday. I think that physically I am capable of a sub 40min time, it's whether I can cope with the pain.
