Just gone through my runs for April, surprised to see I managed 131km. Shame my pace has dropped off a cliff - massively. Did 10km PB last weekend (for 2020) of 50:49 - really thought I was gunning it and thought I was closing in on 15km, but sadly not. Some way off my 39:46 - 3 years ago....
Any tips for increasing both speed and distance? I'm not doing as much HIIT in the gym, perferring instead bigger compound moves. Weight has remained fairly consistant, at a lardy 90kgs.
Back when I used to race athletics I was always told Fartlek for increasing long-run speed. I gave up soon after though and now I just do long slow trail runs, which I enjoy a lot more.
