definitely on a different level, just from looking at the pulse range
have you recorded your 'fighting weight'
your current in shape weight
nice to see the improvement

Hi TheEd - I have been recording my weight daily for a while now in my trainin diary. Things have changed a little - last year when training for 1500m I was steady at 68/69 kilo - since changing to 10k I am steady at 67 touching 66. I guess this is down to bigger weekly distances - 50 to 60 kilometers last year 70 to 80 this year? I am 1.83m tall and a "skinny" build.
I was at 67 on race day last weekend ...

Hi TheEd - hope things are good for you.
I have had a good week. All sessions completed with 70k total (82 last week)
I did not do regular tempo Saturday as I had to run a leg for my club in a road relay competition. Good fun running over a hilly course of approx 8.7k. I ran in 32.26 which my Garmin told me was 3.46 per kilo. Not bad on such a tough course. My average HR was 160 with a max of 171 on the finish stretch.
I feel good today and did a very relaxed 10k easy run.
I will do 10 x 400 this week and fartlek. Cross country race Saturday.
After I intend to do a normal week 1 with 5 x 2000 then a taper week 3 after for a 10k road race on 11-04-10 - how does this sound??
All the best D

Let's see how you feel after the race as you can always get away with 6 x 1000's instead of the 2k session
Cheers
