Running 44:18 [5] 11.0 km (4:02 / km) +5m 4:01 / km
Railpath Run. On the West Toronto Railpath. Consolation for no NAOC I guess.
The idea is to run as many full kilometres as possible over 45 minutes. Length of Railpath is 2 km.
Km times:
3:42
3:50
3:49
4:03
4:10
4:22
4:00
4:07
4:12
4:10
3:58
Disappointed to not run sub 4:00min/km...(had a weird ache in my right quad/knee mid race...really painful...gutted out the last few km.)
...it's more likely that I haven't trained enough (especially speed/strength workouts), and I'm just not strong or fast enough...yet.
Thinking back, this is my first non-O race in almost 20 years...
(I believe it was a 3000m high school south regional race at Mac).
Anyhow, I now have a good baseline to set some reasonable goals and get faster.
