I didn't run this session set by the program. Because I have extended it by three weeks I have some flexibility in what aerobic sessions I will run and just for the next few days I will not follow the program.
Today was about a 15k run at a firm pace that was the equivalent or close to 4 hour marathon pace. so in effect a Marathon Pace session. I also wanted a pace that would not tire me out too much for the marathon I'm running tomorrow.
Yes I know I'm training for a marathon but in the middle of the training I'm running a marathon. That is not what this program is about but I cannot be sure that the marathon on in either Sydney or Canberra on 8 November will be held and so when I have a chance to run an official marathon I'm taking it.
The pace for the 5K splits was about as even as you can get. When I always try to have the slowest at the start and build from there.

Great to see you posting again Ray. Brings back memories of your Lydiard build up for your 100th marathon, which I followed with great interest at the time.
Thank you for the comment. Yep back to some serious Lydiard training and this time hill sessions ect included. I just hope I have a proper marathon to run in. As I have said 8 November Sydney or Canberra,
