Running less than 5k seems like I'm slacking.....

I just ran with our resident coach Matt. We did the "dry" short route, which is only about 4.5k. It always feels like I'm slacking when I do anything less than 5k, but on the other hand I got a few PRs today. After the run Matt told me that we did the first 3k at his training pace, so that made me feel better about struggling a bit on the last stretch!

Yowzers! You guys must just be a blur 😂. Definitely no slacking on that run!

I definitely slacked the last km!

It isnt slacking though, is it. The shorter runs build a different part of our repertoire. You are so fast though!

Thanks Flick. I do prefer my slightly longer routes!

Hardly slacking Mike. Some people like to get it all over with in one quick spurt

LOL, I thought this was a running forum!

Thanks. Matt always pushes me (Not literally)

Short runs are good for intervals Mike, something I’m going to start doing 🏃🏃
