Tempo 3x15'

Yoyoyo Runners !

Today started off strong with a few hours attending classes at my university. The weather was sunny with no clouds in the sky, but with a noticeable drop in temperature. I got ready right away to head to the track after having my usual breakfast.


Workout Timeline: //Check out my workout on Strava here.

  • 2.5K Warm Up (6:00/km)
  • 6x(100 (22") + 1:30R walk)
  • 2' R
  • 3x(15' (3.3K, 4:30/km) + 1' R)
  • 2.5K Cool Down (7:00/km)

More details:

  1. As you can see, the warm-up went well.
  2. Then came the 100m strides, which for some reason I really enjoyed today — I felt like I found the right rhythm.
  3. After that, the hard part of the workout began. The first 3.3K came out quite fast; honestly, I got a bit carried away, so I took a 1.5-minute break instead of 1 minute.
  4. The second 15’ felt really good and I enjoyed it a lot.
  5. During the last one, I started to feel a bit of fatigue toward the end, but it was controlled. It ended up slightly shorter and I liked it the most of all.

From here on:

There’s only one workout left on Thursday (15/1), and then I’ll rest for Sunday’s 5K race. I might add something very easy in between.
I’ve also signed up for my first trail race here in my city on 1/2 — 12K with 700m D+.
That’s all for today’s workout. Wishing everyone a great continuation.

LET’S BREAK ALL THE LIMITS!!! 🚀

That is a great workout! Very well done, taking the extra 30 sec rest is a smart call! With 15min tempo block a 3-5 min zone 1 would also be reasonable.

Overall great work, you will smash your goal in the race!

(Yeah, I would also think after this run, rest is the best for now - a short easy shakeout run 2 - 4 km, with 3 mini strides 10 - 15 sec at 80% power on the day before the race would be my approach!)

Looking forward to the blog on the race!
