Just finished my BPP week #3 2x2000m. I was aiming for 2;12 splits which would have been 2 seconds below my pace for the 6000m piece this week. I wound up at 2:07 and finished the first at 8:28 which is a new PB for me! I was stoked. The second was at 2:10 and finished at 8:39. Very exciting for me...

@jans & @street nice times!

@DNA_rower i would think its because you probably at a far increased pace than the BPP??? also just an over all more intense program??
