Thought I‘d surprise myself with a new 5k PB doing the International Women’s Day Challenge. But a PB was way out of reach considering my high resting HR today. Avg HR proofed it :? Nonetheless I got a pretty decent workout in and I‘m pleased with it.

another IWD 5k here... stupidly thought I'd try for an optimistic PB...

didn't work out - different day maybe, but not this one.
Only 6.4s off my actual pb with a huge breather for 1500m so maybe 2:04 instead of 2:03.5 might have been doable.

It was technique and then body then mind - arms did too much work to start, and then legs felt really heavy/empty - mind let me take the easy route out after that.

Only plus was v strong feeling final split once I got everything together again. final pace 1:52@r25

Good workout.

I signed up for up for it, too, but did not realise that it has to be exactly 5k. Not sure if I have the energy to do another 5k.

Needed something really light, as muscles were sore, but wanted a bit more statt time in. Programmed 2h and soon into it, I felt an urgent need to go to the bathroom :roll:
Could hold it during the first hour, but got very uncomfortable, so stopped to go.

CTC attempt two. Whilst the big hitters are laying down their 1k markers, I opted to take another shot at this with the intention being to go a touch quicker on each interval than last week's effort. I succeeded, but had to work for it. Not sure there is much left, will go again end of the month.
