Notes
(3) fast miles at 5k pace with 90% of time slow jog in between...I figured about a 6 minute slow jog would be aprox. .7 miles. My hope/goal was to be able to run these 3 fast miles at 7:00-7:15 pace. Ended up running them at...
7:23
6:59
6:46
averaged a 7:03 pace.
very happy with these and a great confidence booster.
I really tried to control my breathing at the faster pace so I wasn't huffing and puffing and it definitely seemed to work...a bit harder holding these fast paces going up the slight hills around Metro though and was even able to pick pace up a bit for last mile with a 7:44
