Ran a reasonably comfortable 5k PB first thing this morning, perfect last run before Sunday. Set off aiming at 7:15/mile but found myself having to keep an eye on the pace cos I kept speeding up. Splits were 7:18, 7:12, 7:04 with the remaining tenth of a mile at 6:36.
Pretty pleased with that as final preparation. Think I'll stick with the plan of trying to run Sunday's first 5k at ~7:20, would be happy if I could keep that pace throughout instead of going off quicker and paying for it. In theory that'd give us 45:30, which I'd be delighted with.
Will keep you posted...
