This was extremely informative. My half time at the moment is right at your new PR and I train similarly now as a master. Definitely going to take my time with my down time before ramping things back up. Good luck with your recovery and I look forward to following your progress.

Thanks for the watch - as a masters athlete, how do you incorporate top end speed into your training?

@@ZenithEndurance I’ve always been more of the fast twitch type but I’ll do short 8-10 second steep hill sprints year round. 15% on the treadmill at max 12mph usually does it. Complete rests in between. Once per week, usually the evening before long run days to help prime up the legs. Old school Lydiard stuff never seems to let me down.
