Yes 60s rest. 90s for the 2000s last Friday. I thought that would be a big difference coming from equal time rests during marathon training (and wanted to introduce it gradually therefore), but it actually is not a problem at all.
The thing that makes me wonder is, that I am looking for improvements in the anaerobic ability and lactate tolerance. I want to be able to run longer at HR>90%(171). The opposite is happening at the moment: I can run the same pace as 2 month ago at a lower HR, but can't run any faster...
I will do the hill-race on Saturday.
Do you think it could make sense to substitute the long run the week after with a short rep session, to work against the problems I seem to experience?
