Mon:

20k progressive run

Scheduled as an easy run (6:00 pace), but decided to do a progressive run: first 5k at 6:00 pace, then 5:30, then 5:00, then faster or the same or slower, depending on how I felt. It turned out to be:

29:57, 27:36, 25:06, 24:52. So just about exact pacing. The last one my hamstrings were tightening so did not feel like going faster, but holding the pace was ok. Was actually a bit behind after 4k and ran the last k in 4:40.

Legs still a bit tired from Saturday. Felt comfortable all the way, nice workout.
