10 km Fartlek

One of my team scheduled a meeting for 1:00 pm - clearly not someone who knows my habit of long training walks in my lunch break. Never mind, I went out at 11:00 am instead which was a good move considering the number of school holiday scooters I had to dodge. I did not feel great out there today - a bit stiff after Sunday's walk I guess. My first 'sprint' km was pretty slow so that was not a good sign. Fortunately all the 500m sprints except the last were 3:00 or less which was my goal. The slower laps were sometimes a bit too slow but my overall time of 63:47 was pleasing. I can think of a number of races where my result was worse than this. My splits are below. Average heart rate 155 bpm, average pace 6:22/km.


6:24
3:27 + 2:56 = 6:24
3:12 + 2:56 = 6:08
3:28 + 3:00 = 6:28
3:20 + 3:00 = 6:20
3:24 + 2:56 = 6:20
3:23 + 2:59 = 6:22
3:24 + 2:55 = 6:19
3:29 + 2:59 = 6:28
3:22 + 3:05 = 6:27
