10k PB

Mon - rest (shagged from Sunday)
Tue: 10k to shelley including 5k @ 3:57
Wed: Easy 12k around Manly @ 4:46
Thu: Was meant to be a medium long run, but got busy and ran out of time
Fri: 10k Shelley run very easy in preparation for Saturday.
Sat: 10k PB - 37:53. I was very interested to see what I could do after last weeks 5k PB. I wasn't expecting a PB, but would be doing what I could to break 38:10, the previous PB. Sub50 who isn't running heaps of k's at the moment indicated that he would be around 38 mins, so I stuck to him. I sat on his shoulder until 4k which was a real benefit, with Splits of 3:41, 3:44, 3:38 and 3:38 for 14:34. Realising that this was the same as my 4k split from last weeks 5k PB, I freaked out and let Sub50 drift away. Big mistake and the disadvantage of running with a watch. The next 3 k's were done in 3:47, 3:47 and 3:53, a little slower, but feeling like I could keep it up. Caught up to sub50 with 3k to go and tried to keep churning out the k's. The last 3k were done in 3:47, 3:47 and 3:50. Very happy with the PB and encouraged that there is some more time to gain with a further block of speed work and better race conditioning.
Sun: Felt awful all day after a very long and busy Saturday. Could not be bothered to even run, let alone a long run.

Total for the week was a measly 43k in 3:06 at average of 4:31 however nothing over 12k. Whoops! An encouraging PB, but a poor week of training. SMH Half next weekend and another opportunity to keep the PB train rolling on.
