I've had quite a physical week this week, having started circuit training and being active on the allotment, so I opted for three relatively easy runs, I have to be careful at my age, and I think I got the balance about right....
I simply did three five Ks around my usual route, one fastish, one intervals and one slower!
Tuesday - Fastish 5K
Just my standard run around my standard route - here's my heart rate in relation to pace...
I could have knocked a minute off, but that did me!
Thursday - local intervals
I took these fairly easy too but was quite happy with my pace overall.
Apologies for the massive images, on a different machine to usual, not really familiar with the picture editing tools!
This was a very bitty session on account of two trucks rudely forcing me to pause for about 10 seconds half way around!
Sunday - easy 5K
I was planning to do a 10K but Saturday was such a grim day I couldn't get down the allotment, so wanted to do a double day today, with an early start and thought a 10K run would just leave me feeling knackered.
So instead I did an easy 5K, which was the right decision (and then had a great day on the allotment).
Interesting to compare the relative heart rate with the pace to Tuesday's faster run....
This wasn't super easy pace, it was easy-mid!
Next week's plans
Annoyingly I've got a busy week so I'll be happy if I can just rinse and repeat, whether it's worth reporting I'll decide next Monday!
Very high heart rate!
Only towards the end! All in safe zones mainly
True, but be careful mate!
That's a really nice average! I'm procrastinating going back to my running routine, been ages since I ran. !BEER
You just gotta get out and crack on!
Absolutely!
