Hi TheEd
Coming towards the end of the build up period, and as last time wondering whether to go back onto th 10k program or cycle through the build up again. As there are some races coming back during April and May I would like to take part in one soonish (I suppose end of May at the latest). Could I do that whilst still on the build up period, or would it be best to get at least one 10k program cycle completed first?
30 & 31 March
Rested
1 April
"Work the hills"
10.46km in 48:19
Av pace 4:37/km
Av HR 150, Max HR 175
Elevation gain 194m
Felt great on this session, really motoring up the hills and feeling strong.
2 April
16.29km in 1:20:35
Av pace 4:57/km
Av HR 141
3 April
12.01km in 1:01:00
Av pace 5:05/km
Av HR 138
4 April
12.01km in 1:00:39
Av pace 5:03/km
Av HR 143
Last 15 mins at 65% (Av pace 4:44/km, Av HR 152)
Very busy day so 6:30am run which is unusual for me. Definitely felt tougher than running at my preferred time of day in the afternoon.
5 April
12.05km in 59:45
Av pace 4:58/km
Av HR 137
Will be out for 5 X 8 mins later today.
Cheers
