The first five weeks (conditioning) of the 5K program are complete. The next stage is competition, this involves sharpening and a reduction in mileage. I'm not to keen on bringing my mileage down as its only averaging 54 miles a week. The lessons learned from the USATF race was pacing and endurance. Todays workout showed both are in awry.
Scheduled 8 x 600 meters with a two minute rest.
I figured to run these between 1:53 to 1:57
ACTUALS:

ReplyDeleteThose repeats look really consistent (not to mention, fast). Good luck with your sharpening and the upcoming races!
