Very nice work @BathMatt and congrats on the PB. I had the same feeling on a start line yesterday and it rained 10 mins before my race (800), but didn't get the reward you got 🤣 @J2R good work. All you can do is be consistent with your training and hopefully the progress comes or you see where tweaks can be made. I should be running 5000 at track league on Saturday all being well. I want it to be a controlled run but whether it ends up that way will depend on a number of factors including fitness and recovery. 4:24.59 for 1500 last Saturday and 2:13.06 for 800 yesterday suggests endurance might be better than speed currently but isn't what I'd normally do before an all out 5000, hence the control plan but I'm now a scoring runner rather than a guest so it could end up less controlled than planned. |
