A plethora of PBs

Stretch targets ate meant to be difficult. I didn't get a km distance in sub 5 minutes

Although not in the screen grab, I did achieve a 400m distance in sub 5 minutes /km pace and dead chuffed to get PBs for 2 miles, 1 mile, 1K, 1/2 mile, and 400m.

Overall did the 25minutes running at an average pace of 6m06s /km

Go cat, go! ๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Ow! Need to keep stretching ๐Ÿ†

Back to slow and steady methinks ๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿข

How was your running today?

Good stuff... well done... be pleased that you can do 400m at your targeted pace. That means post grad you can take on 400m intervals at that pace and itโ€™ll help your overall pace.

Actually I over achieved and did a Victory Jog after warming down and stretching.

I thought I was running at 8m/km pace but I did another 1k @ 6.30/km.

It felt really slow!

Fantastic Katnap a great run with some nice PBโ€™s and a great average pace to boot! Youโ€™re on for a cracking 5K time there. Enjoy the rest of your weekend then go crack that W8 matey ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿ™Œโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜บ

Yes but a good pain. Stretches, shower, stretches, bacon rolls, a walk into town and back... now I'm just tired.

Mrs Katnap will be taking kitten 1 out for his w7R3. Another 2.5k to her earlier 5k!

You know that I was feeling good for this the day before but in the morning my left calf kept wanting to knot before I started running. Then it was fine ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Well done Katnap. I need a lie down after reading all that๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Sounds like youโ€™re motoring big time- and it all sounds very scientific to me. Excellent pace ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
