3 x 3k session with an easy 10k

I have not done a session like this for a looooooong while. But I know it has to be done so I had 2 penciled in and depending on how the first two went maybe a 3rd. The pacing I am following had me doing them at 4.28 pace and in the warm up run that sounded out of my range.

But as I have found that cruisy warm up does not usually raise the confidence.

Anyway I was determined to give it a shot. Only a couple of glimpses at the Garmin and well I ran 13.07/13.06/13.02 - all about 4.22 pace. Then I finished off with 10k @ 5.15 pace. Me thinks a bit quick for this far out from the marathon in April. However next week I might take it up a notch and the pace of all runs will increase but not to what I am at the moment.
