Mixing Things up

I went for a freestyle run tomorrow. I was undecided whether to go fast or slow. So I decided to train myself in surging and recovery then later decided to just do a tempo run. I decided to start slowly (6:35!) and started speeding up from the 6th k and cleared the next 5k in 21:21. Close to my 5K PR of 21:20. I think I am coming back. Eventually.

I closed it at 16k in 1:14.
I think next time I will try to push it to 8K and see what happens. I will have the 8K padded with 4K just before it so I accelerate gradually and then try to maintain top speed - hence tempo run.

1              6:35.9   

2              5:09.8   

3              4:38.2   

4              4:44.1   

5              4:30.1   

6              4:28.9   

7              4:25.9   

8              4:16.7   

9              4:21.5   

10           4:12.6   

11           4:15.7   

12           4:19.0   

13           4:28.0   

14           4:35.1   

15           4:31.6   

16           4:27.8    

Cheers guys. Keep running.
