When does 10k become 5k

When I can't be bothered doing another lap of a 2 lap course.

Lake Joondalup 5k - 18:46 3.37/3:47/3:50/3:46/3:37, garmin registered 5.05k

Beautiful morning and a pretty flat course. Was feeling pretty comfortable at 3k and decided that a sub 19 was quite achievable for 5k and mentioned this to Craig who also decided to just run the 5k. Pretty happy with the time as I had quite a bit left in the tank which is good for the future.

Warmup - 1.5k @ Marathon pace
Cooldown 6k- With Craig.

Week in summary 61k average pace of 4:32.

Great doing some Intervals at Floreat Tues and this will become a weekly must session, will be interesting to see the variety as this week had the shorter stuff.

Also ran a couple of Marathon pace runs and an easy run.

Huge congrats to Henry on another big pb,it's great to see you're on fire, keep it up.

Congrats to Craig on doing sub 19 5k.


Looking forward to doing more intervals this week and also doing some more hill work.

Intervals are definitely the go - I just don't think I can commit to the Tuesday sessions.

Good race today. Just think what you could have done if you had just wanted to do the 5k.

Next time!

Lunch is on.
