Busy Week

Challenged the VIth form boys to a race on Tuesday after my rubbish 5k attempt and got a new PB of 3:09.9. It nearly killed me.

Day off yesterday.

A hard 5,000m today to make up for Monday. I am planning to move my rest day to Friday for the Pete Plan.

The aim today was to go sub 18 minutes for 5,000m - but I failed by 5 seconds. It was hard - I was over 15 seconds outside my PB which suggests that I have some way to go to get back to full fitness. I felt that 18 minutes was in my grasp - all I needed was to do the last 1,000m in 1:45 splits but I just couldn't get near it. Final time was 18:05.2.

Metres today: 10,715
Metres on Monday: 1,500

Bad luck Thomas, very close.
Just shows the level you are now at to be "dissapointed" with 18:05 ;-)
