Carving the way up… Two days from the previous one did a 10K “Christmas run” (usually it is minimum double the distance), then one more day off and a 6K. Last night a new try in Arena to confirm if the first one was really the baseline to build on. It was. Started off with a much better 5.25 than previously but already there my legs told I can’t make it five times. Second one went to struggle mode in 5.29 and on the third I was done: 5.39. Took 2.5 minutes break, had Stairway to Heaven to play from iPod and fought a 5.28. Afterwards a tight gym set, also the first of the season. Overall, this was the first attempt at a decent track training set. The first failed try five days ago was needed to get to this stage, to seriously go for it. After the set I was completely done. Muscles are in pains all over. Almost like after a marathon…
