I did a V02max workout today consisting of 5x1000 meters. My coach set the goal pace at 3:12 per interval, but I exceeded that every time. I had three mins rest after each interval consisting of some slow jogging. This was not too bad, and I felt good after I finished. I am looking forward to my race this weekend.

What times did you get?

From Nick on Tue, Apr 10, 2007 at 19:53:06

I ran 3:00, 3:02, 3:02, 3:01 and 3:05. I felt like I could have gone a bit faster, but I don't want to go too far beyond my coaches goal pace (3:12). I guess the average pace comes out to approx. 4:50-4:55 mile pace, so it wasn't too bad. It is weird, if I were to combine all these times, it would still be a longer than my best 5k. I think this is due to the adrenalin factor at races. Still not having run many races, I tend to get pretty hyped up before them. I also think a 5k is a short enough distance that you don't have to pace yourself to any large extent.
