I have to say it was a great evening run, the temperatures are much cooler than the last few days, thanks to a big passing thunderstorm, but most importantly I am feeling good about my running. With a friend of mine we decided to do a relaxed run under 5:00/k and after the 1st km warm up we hit easily 4:40-4:50/k for the next 9k and then we did 5X200m strides at 4:00/k recovering for the next 200m at 4:50/k. We finished 12k at what would be a good MP and it was really easy, I have never felt a run like this so easy. Last year at this time I was struggling doing any training at any speed. I really appreciate right now the last 9-10 months of uninterrupted training. |
