5x2K session last night:
Split Time AvHR MaxHR
1 8:30 148 161
2 8:26 157 164
3 8:27 160 166
4 8:34 158 166
5 8:29 151 167
A bit sluggish at first even after a decent warmup with strides. I felt in control but I don't think I could have done 8:20's. I might have been able to push it a bit harder in the last lap of each rep but I was more focused on running an even pace (1:40/400m). I tried to keep my rests to 90 seconds but there were a few in the middle where I took an extra 15 seconds.
If you think I need to push harder during these sessions, please let me know.
Where to from here Coach? I know we're repeating week 1 next week so that I land on the race day properly. Do I still do a long run tomorrow and next weekend as well? I'm currently doing 2 hours (23kms) since I'd like to tackle another half-marathon in November.
Thanks,
KK
