Hudson had intervals on the schedule for me today (the high-mileage 5K plan). At first I was gonna bag them tonight and do them tomorrow. Then I got out there and the legs felt pretty good and it was nice and cool, and I decided to go ahead and do the intervals anyway. Called for 1200m at HMP, then 6 X 400 at something faster like 5K pace or slightly under, sort of a VO2 max run. Well, it was almost 6X400; more like 4 X 400 and 2 X something else, since I couldn't see my Garmin distance or pace very well. Pace turned out OK, two of the intervals turned out .16 and .21 instead of .25. So I did 1.37 miles of 400s instead of 1.50. Oh well. Pace was a little spread out, from 6:37 to 7:08 for the quarters (6:49 would be pure I pace for me). The 1200 came out just about as planned. I'm starting to get an inkling that there is still more speed in there if I can dig it out. Then I have to learn how to sustain it on race day, or sustain enough of it to get where I want to go, like 3:19:xx. |
