Stacey
This was hard. I didn't want to get up and when I got there I didn't want to keep going. I took loads of walking breaks but finished what the plan said. It is my furthest distance to date. Prob... read more

good Round the park in TORRENTIAL ... 4.2 mi 00:47 11:06 pace
Week 4 of the 10K plan. Next week I have to run 5 miles, scary! But I did a 2.3mile run yesterday and it felt pretty easy. I hadn't thought too deeply about it, but when I was speaking to my dad... read more

RUN
good once round the park 2.3 mi 00:24 10:26 pace
How do you increase speed? I've been bumbling along at this pace for ages and I would really like to do a sub 30 5K sometime soon!! Any advice?
-
I'm sure there are some very methodical ways of increasing speed out there, but for me (though I'm not speedy!) it did happen naturally as I became stronger and ran farther distances. I think I've heard that adding speed bursts occasionally can help, but I'm not sure. And you aren't "bumbling" - you're running, and it's a very good pace!

I will try that Fegrig, the idea of running faster between certain points. I tried that today, sort of, but it didn't make much difference to the overall finish time because I had to slow down so much to recuperate!! But I'll keep at it and see if I can do that sub 30 on July 8th! :) I was wondering about increasing distance too Kari. I'm 4 weeks into a 13 week 10k plan, so maybe that will help me too. Thanks you guys!

It's unlikely to yield a faster overall time in the short term Stacey the rationale is to adapt the body to a different pace and load this will in adapt aid the adaption of you to run at a higher ace for longer. If it is a robust 10k plan there should be some speed endurance sessions planned within the schedule.

RUN
good round the park in a tee shirt... 2.9 mi 00:30 10:17 pace
same run as Tuesday (distance measured more correctly with the GPS) and 3 minutes faster! Probably becuause a friend gave me some rocky music to power me along! :)
-
3 minutes is pretty significant - great job!

actually, I made a mistake. Sorry!! I compared it to the wrong run! But I was over a minute faster with the rocky music, and I only stopped once instead of 3 times... Anyway, tomorrow morning I try for 4 miles, longest distance ever for me!

good along the river after the rain 1.7 mi 00:18 10:29 pace
so this was my first run in 2 weeks. So I kept it short to see how I would do. I'll try and increase the length this week. I wanted to start a 10K training plan last week, but that didn't happen!
