Thanks, will start building up those shorter runs, I've been thinking about doing that recently as I'd like to attempt my first marathon in May next year. I'll probably start increasing one 40 minute run/week to an hour and go from there. I'm nervous about adding too much too soon and if I've learned anything over the past 6 months it's that I need to be patient as my body takes a bit longer to adapt than I want it to.
Just did the 10x400 yesterday, felt good turning the legs over at that pace. 2K warmup with strides.
Lap,Split,AvHR, MaxHR
1 1:28 146, 158
2 1:26 150, 160
3 1:26 151, 161
4 1:26 152, 161
5 1:26 154, 161
6 1:24 155, 163
7 1:26 155, 163
8 1:25 156, 164
9 1:26 157, 164
10 1:25 159, 166
All rests were 60. I probably could have gone a bit quicker but I didn't want to push too hard. Legs feel good today, looking forward to the wind down to the race.
The weather here is so beautiful right now, I'm really excited about fall running.
