A typical Monday after a weekend of relaxation. Meaning too much to do, oh well.
My
legs were feeling flat as was the rest of me but I didn't want to scrap
a workout so I did one anyway. I need to start getting into a regular
workout schedule again if I want to move beyond just running again to
actually racing again.
2 mi easy warm-up: Avg. 7:54 HR 134 5K hard workout (Course tool prediction):
Mi 1: 5:31 HR 169 (5:30)
Mi 2: 5:38 HR 172 (5:40)
Mi 3: 5:59 HR 175 (5:51)
0.1 Mi: 0:40 HR 174 (0:44)
TOTAL: 17:47 Avg. 5:44 HR 162
Not
exactly a stellar workout but at least it was something. My legs were
feeling it and the major fall off in pace at least shows that I was
pushing. 1.5 mi medium cool-down around SugarHouse: Avg. 7:29 HR 155
2 mi easy cool-down back home: Avg. 8:23 HR 144 I really have to give it to Sasha. His course tool is amazing. So the workout was much more consistent than I thought. Still room for improvement but awhile ago I put this 5K in the course tool as my Adam's TT 5K. The predicted splits for even effort for my finish time of 17:47 are in bold above.
