Looks to be a good pace...one I wouldn't mind doing! Are you aiming to extend your distance or the pace?

A 40 minute run is great Rob. Just remember the 10% rule of not increasing total weekly distance or time by more than 10% each week. We don't want you on the injury couch!

in reply toIrishprincess

Thanks irish :) I am within that 10% phew :) definitely dont want to be on the injury couch !

By my reckoning , that is a 6 min 40 sec per Klm pace - not too bad at all for Run/walk at 2/1!!!! I am pushing to do that pace running non-stop.

in reply toBazza1234

Thanks Bazza :D i was very surprised by the results too :)

I am pretty much the same sort of times in 2:1. I just feel so much better with it. I am in my third week now and I haven't looked back. You know when something just fits. Saying that on the bench today as I have a sore throat. Get one thing right ........

It is very strange when you have a run/walk session and the time is the same or better than a run only!! I would like to think I walk really really fast !! :-)

Thanks Real, Tiki and Andy :) i just do the run/walk on 1 of my runs The results did surprise me
