I have no idea… what my Half Marathon Pace is like or 5K for that matter…. Until now… I only ever consider my pace to be slow and slower. Mind you this is because I would usually run way too fast to start off with and then gradually get slower and slower as time went on. Oh how I am changing! and for the better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So with the different pacing options, I am going to try and aim for the suggest speeds\/pace that the app has me down for. Whether I will be able to maintain it is a different matter but I shall give it a damn good go. If I don’t think I can keep it up for all of the last intervals I will decrease the pace slightly and if I have to do this workout again. I would start of with a slow pace for the longer runs at the beginning but increase the speed at the end so that I can maintain the whole times. At the moment, it is trial and error with pacing as it is something that I am not used to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What a nightmare….. I did an extra 8 minutes and 22 seconds as I started my warm-up and my shoe lace came undone and I thought I had pushed the pause button but oh no I pushed the stop button… I could have just carried on to complete the 10 minute warm-up but nope… I thought I would reset the clock… Why oh why did I think this was such a good idea at the time?? Nope me neither.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first 3-4 intervals were not too bad but then boy oh boy could I feel it. I didn’t think that I was going to have the lung capacity to continue but I stuck with the game plan although I did slow my pace down a little bit. I was a little gutted as I thought I had finished all of my hard work but then I heard… now work… beep beep beep insert lots of swear words here…. I still have one final push left to go. Then hurrah I can walk! Get in! <\/p>\n\n\n\n EEEEKKK I wouldn’t normally run two days in a row but there was no way I could manage to run on Tuesday after I had played Padel and Tennis for 3 hours in total! Tonight’s run is for 49 minutes in total. I thought this was my longest run that I have completed so far […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2883,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[15,16,27,14,12],"class_list":["post-2879","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-training","tag-cheerupcharlie","tag-charlie-kristensen-foundation","tag-interval-training","tag-london-marathon-2025","tag-london-marathon-25"],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-scaled.jpeg",1440,2560,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-150x150.jpeg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-169x300.jpeg",169,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-768x1365.jpeg",768,1365,true],"large":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-576x1024.jpeg",576,1024,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-864x1536.jpeg",864,1536,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2229-1152x2048.jpeg",1152,2048,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Louise","author_link":"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/?author=1"},"uagb_comment_info":7,"uagb_excerpt":"EEEEKKK I wouldn’t normally run two days in a row but there was no way I could manage to run on Tuesday after I had played Padel and Tennis for 3 hours in total!
