6 km Fartlek

My programme included an 8 km fartlek for this week. I had planned to do that yesterday but my left leg was feeling quite numb and I didn't feel it was a good idea to train at all that day. I did some stretches and core exercises instead. My leg was still not feeling great today so I decided to cut my distance down form 8 km to 6 km.

I was quite stiff for the first km but did manage to find some better speed in some of the later fast sections. The first 3 km were into a strong wind so it's not surprising that the fast sections were better coming back (the slow sections were slower though).

I'm meeting the podiatrist at the track at 12:30 pm tomorrow so I will do my 20 mins easy training then.

My times for today:

1 km 6:10

2 km 3:23 + 3:03 = 6:26

3 km 3:22 + 2:59 = 6:21

4 km 3:26 + 2:55 = 6:21

5 km 3:25 + 3:05 = 6:30

6 km 3:33 + 2:48 = 6:21
