29 October 2013 - Unplanned progression run

First of all I have to apologise for lying in my last post. I said I did a 28 mile week, but actually it was only 26, sorry.

Anyway, the plan for Tuesdays run was 6 miles easy, but by the time I got on the treadmill I'd cut that down to 8km (5 miles). I did the first km at 9km/h, the next at 10 and then settled at 10.5, as that put my heart rate at about the right place. Unfortunately during this time I got bored, and so figured I would go for a bit at the end.

So at 2km I put it up to 11.5km/h and then up by another km/h each half click, finishing at 14.5km/h (6:40 min/mile). The finishing pace was hard but not unbearable, and it gave me something to look forward to in an otherwise boring run. Definitely motivation I'll use in future.

Distance: 5 miles
Time: 44 minutes 45 seconds
Pace: 8:57 min/mile
