Wasn’t sure what to expect today. I knew I am in good condition at the moment, but with a lot of miles in my legs the last few weeks I didn’t know how they’d respond. I therefore decided to just go out and run hard, and see what happened.
I quickly settled in to around 3:55/km pace, and while my legs didn’t feel like they had anything more in them in felt pretty comfortable effort wise. Aside from the odd slip of concentration when I noticed the pace slipping slightly I felt good the whole way around.
Had enough in me to manage a bit of a speed up in the last km, and pleased to pass the line taking ~25 seconds off my PB. On fresh legs I’m confident id be sub-39. Another nice confidence booster. Although not sure how my long run tomorrow will feel after this?!
