What: 6x800m@15kph w/400m jog recovery on t’mill Why:variation on 10*400m, but so full of it after 2 days off did 6 instead of 5 Last hard day: sun tempo/race Last rest: tues & wed
So why so virtuous: well I usually do my 400m intervals at 14.6kph, but having done 4.5mile race at 14.1kph I felt I had up the speed for the intervals…and I then realised that 15kph is a 20min 5k and if I didn’t need the recoveries and I could do twice as many and I gave myself a little incline then I’d be on for a sub 40min 10k which is about as likely as Osama bin Laden taking his pet pig El Al from Baghdad to Tel Aviv…
Hi all - haven't joined in here before but I thought it was about time I did.
What: 40mins (4.3miles) on treadmill Why: It's my birthday and running in the rain would have just been too depressing Last hard: Sunday Last rest: Monday
OOO bit late I know! Busy all day - met another employment agency having endured SWT and the tube. Got home to find the wife in distress as 4yo nativity costume (she's the innkeeper) has to be in by next Friday.Toured the town looking for ideas and finally got something that can be doctored...... Managed to make it out later just as the heavens opened. What : 8 miles allegedly easy pace, turned out quicker than expected (57m as opposed to 64). Measured HR avg 163, noted that I have to work out max at some stage.Did note that resting beforehand my HR was down at 36. Why : steady midweek run (?) Last Rest : Tuesday Last Hard : Wednesday

15kph is a 20min 5k and

and I could do twice as many
and I gave myself a little incline
then I’d be on for a sub 40min 10k
