610 meters

9/15/24

On tap today was 6 x 2:00 at 5K goal pace with a 2-min walking recovery between efforts. My goal is sub 18:00, about 5:47 or less/mile.  At this pace, I was hoping to cover about 550-560 meters per repeat. (42 seconds per 200 meters)

Sunday, July 23, 2018-Let the transition begin

On tap today was 8 x 2:00 at 5K goal pace with a 2-min jog recovery between efforts. My goal is sub 18:00, about 5:47 or less/mile.  At this pace, I should have covered about 550-560 meters per repeat. (42 seconds per 200 meters)

And here is Tues, 9/19/17-


#1: Ran an entire 600m in 2:04.  I was wondering whether I should do 600s or stick with 2:00.  I chose to stick with 2:00 so that I could do the workout as designed, but also make my way to being about to do 2-min 600s with a 2:00 jog recovery comfortably.  2:00 600s is much faster than my goal pace.  My goal is 17:30, which is 5:38/mile.  At this pace, I should have covered 571 meters per repeat.
