Tempo Run

I ran bare foot on the wet, but not boggy, grass in the soccer field today.  The session was:

1.5km easy
3.5km @ MT (mid-tempo) pace
1.5km easy
3.5km @ MT pace
1.5km easy

Changing my 5k time from 31:38 (last year's time) to 32 min. (I must be at least that much slower by now!) and basing all paces on that time, MT pace is 6:44m/k.

3.5km @ 7:07
3.5km @ 6:49 ....both a bit slow, but the  puddles didn't help!

  1. I'll get my spies to put the super-sopper over the field before your next session.

    32 is still a very respectable 5k time. Poor old FD is still trying to get down to that!

  2. Been wondering about the absence of your spies! Time they got to work!

    I'll have to keep ahead of FD! Id like to do a 5k race just to see exactly where I am for this year.
