Fartlek (Swedish for Speed Play) consisted of a 10:00 warm up followed by 5 1:00 speed sets with a 1:00 easy run between, another 5:00 of easy running and then a "ladder" of 2/1:00 sets, 2/1:30 sets and then a final 2:00 speed set. Finished this off with another 20:00 of easy running and called it a day. Good workout!
Looks like I will race a 5k on Memorial day and I'll think of it as a speed workout before the following Saturdays 50k - so nice and easy running in between.
Thats the plans and thanks for reading!
