Very hot day planned so reverted to plan B – the early
morning session once I’d finished work. Just under 12ks done at super slow pace
before hooking up with Kanser for a tempo run.
Where ever there is Kanser there is Confusion and took me an age to find
him, finally tracked him down outside the park on Moore Park and he was already
into it.
Tagged on and found he was just wanted to do 7k tempo around
the 1k course , I love Kanser like a brother but he’s hopeless to train and
work with as I found I was running around the 3.35 pace for the first lap and
getting dropped as he run 10m ahead WTF??????
Decided to run the pace I was happy with and settled at
3.42s that felt comfortable despite the already soaring heat, Could see Kanser’s
pace drop around the 3.5k mark and overtook but in truth my pace didn’t alter
at all.
Stopped on 5ks exactly in 18.50 average pace 3.42s as I then
waited for Kanser to come home where we both decided that was enough for the
day.
Certainly not the longest session done and perhaps only half
of the usual lunchtime HuRTS set but by the time I cooled down I’d racked up
18ks for the morning.
3.42s are an improvement, and that included the first 2ks
pretty comfortable.
Will need to get back out tomorrow though and knock out a
steady 14ks or so, temps expected to be in the 30s once more so will look to do
early.
Cheers
