Well, I think I'll stick to running rather than predicting cricket matches! :duh:
Since the 4x2K session on Thursday I've only been able to get out for one 30min easy run before today's 6x1K session. Life just took over for the weekend.
So too todays 6x1K session (pace target was 4.25-4.30 per K). The splits for the last time I did this session (3 weeks ago) are in brackets.
1. 4.19 (4.44)
2. 4.20 (4.37)
3. 4.29 (4.36)
4. 4.26 (4.45)
5. 4.38 (4.39)
6. 4.43 (4.25)
So I managed four of the intervals at, or quicker than, the target pace. Perhaps if I had slowed myself down a bit for the first two I would of ran the last two stronger. Nice to get them all quicker than 4.45 (current pb pace) though.
Over the weekend I have the 5K paced run on Saturday and on Sunday a 5K Spartan Race (Assault Course) that I will run instead of a steady 10K.
What 5K time should I now be aiming for? I'm thinking between 23.00-23.30, how does that sound?
Cheers,
Nick
