tipsku 9 May 12:57pm, 9 May 2024 4,250 posts	0 tipsku I deleted my initial attempt because the retest would have fallen on the same date as a 133 mi bike marathon in the Alps so I waited over a week to enter project joker again. 22:11 is my initial test, looking to improve about 30-40 seconds until mid-July, aiming for around 7 m/m. I did the 5x 800 session on Tuesday. The goal was to keep to 3:30 per rep (1:45 pretty lap) with 1 lap recovery jogs between efforts 1) 3:26 2) 3:28 3) 3:25 4) 3:30 5) 3:28 Felt hard but doable. Friday, I'll try some threshold running.

Fenners-Reborn 11 May 5:40pm, 11 May 2024 880 posts	0 Fenners-Reborn To be fair Fenland Flier it would be faster if there were less people. I got really stressed at the start due to being too far back.
tipsku 12 May 1:26am, 12 May 2024 4,259 posts	0 tipsku Fantastic time, Fenners-Reborn! Well done! I did the first threshold session on Saturday, 3x 2000 m threshold intervals. It was quite warm, over 20°C when I started but the wind made it bearable. First week in the book, intervals, long run and threshold done.
