- Mobility, stretching, walk, short jog and stride
- General Endurance: 3.0 km in 14:25 ( 31 second PB, 24:01 5 km pace )
This was an attempt at 4km at 24 flat 5km pace. I could feel that I was moving in a slightly higher gear. My splits were perfect at 0.5km, 1.5km and 2.5km. Almost dead on. However fatigue was setting in and I just wasn't quite in the mood to have to really battle out that last kilometer. I am pleased with a 31 second PB at 3km and will extend it out to 3.5km the next time.

- Mobility, stretching, walk, short jog and stride
- General Endurance: 3.5km in 16:44 ( 42 second PB, 23:54 5k pace )
I'm locked into that 24 flat 5k pace now. Certainly I was working that last half kilometer and glad to be able to stop when I did. But the goal was to hit my split for 3.5k today and there were no mental lapses. I think I have it in me soon to push that onto 4k. It's only running another 2:24. I just have to attempt it on a day when I get a great sleep like last night.
