Hi Ed. My legs feel a little heavy, but nothing too serious.
I am quite happy with my progress for now and if things go well I will apply to local event in October (11k race) to get some official reference result.
RE: Training towards a sub 45 minute 10K in a year - TheEd - 17-07-2020
Hi pit, during this week, we had a time-trial on the track for the little group training on the programs. They did a 3000m time-trial .. 6 athletes .. chose that distance so that they could measure where they are currently .. so, do consider doing such a test, as it will provide you with a pace towards a 5k best and then onto a 10k result
this helps in achieving little goals along the way

Hi Ed. Yesterday i did 3k time-trial as you suggested. I gave my best, but started too strong, so that's something I have to work on and learn how to pace myself at the beginning. Here are the results:
TIME // DIST // AVG PACE // AVG HR
12:20 // 3 km // 4:07 // 165 (max. HR 171)
TIME // AVG PACE // AVG HR
1. 200m - 0:44 // 3:41 // 143
2. 400m - 1:33 // 3:52 // 162
3. 400m - 1:36 // 4:00 // 167
4. 400m - 1:40 // 4:09 // 168
5. 400m - 1:41 // 4:12 // 167
6. 400m - 1:44 // 4:19 // 167
7. 400m - 1:44 // 4:19 // 168
8. 400m - 1:40 // 4:10 // 169
RE: Training towards a sub 45 minute 10K in a year - TheEd - 20-07-2020
HI pit, at least you didn't fall apart too much. 4:15 per k is a 21:15 5k and a 42:30 10k
so if you can fall apart to 4:15 per k you are making progress
on we go TheEd

RE: Training towards a sub 45 minute 10K in a year - pit75 - 16-08-2020
Hi TheEd. Last two weeks I was on annual leave, so I mostly did few light runs at 5:40 min/km pace.
Yesterday I took part at local evening race (8.7 km distance - 2 x 4.35 km) and I have my first official results.
My time was 39:12 (19:25 first lap, 19:47 second lap) , which adds up to 4:30,3 min/km pace.
Based on my result, (this week) I will start with sub 45 min program and see how it goes.

Hi pit, are you happy with your running currently?
