3 x 2 km with 3 min recovery

I suspected that my sprints would be pretty slow today as I get used to an adjusted style. I set myself the modest goal of 6:30/km and walked about 1 km to warm up. It was hot and sunny today with a light breeze, not worth mentioning by Wellington standards. My first km was 6:22 and the next one 6:06 which was encouraging. My next 2 km was 12:00 - amazing! I will be disappointed not to better the 8:57 that I did on the last 1500 m of this lap in the race at the track tomorrow. I found it harder to maintain speed on the last lap but was pleased with my overall average of 6:11/km. My average HR was 157 bpm.

Splits: 12:28, 12:00, 12:43
