Did the "Segments" run again, same as last Saturday. My pacing was better than last week, but it didn't feel any easier. Maybe because it was only 17 hours after my run last night.
I ran 3x5km with 3min. walk/jog recovery. The goal was to stay at 8:30 pace for the segments. I ran 26:14 (8:28 pace), 26:08 (8:25 pace) and 26:14 (8:27 pace). I was very tired at the end, not because of pace, but because of duration. I had to focus to keep under 8:30, as my body really wanted to slow down and run more comfortably. I didn't drink anything until after the last 5K, and it didn't help - it was rather warm and I felt dehydrated. Next time I'll carry some water. Did 4x100m strides at the end, and then jogged home very slowly. Legs felt dead.
Total time 1:47:47. |
