Time Trial Saturday : 5000m
Iriquois Ridge HS Track (+2C)..a little bit of wind to contend with, not much.
Goal : 20 to 21 minutes.
As I have had relatively no speedwork or significant mileage over the last 24 months, I was not at all sure what to expect.
Finished: 20:02
KM Splits: 3:58, 4:01, 4:03, 3:55, 4:04
I really felt my lack of stamina during the final km, and my overall lack of speed throughout the run, as I felt I only had one gear !!
But now, at least I know where I am, and this is a decent starting place for pace management over the next few months.
