Week 6, Run 2. The hardest yet?

Finished this run this evening and I definitely found it the hardest run so far. Don’t get me wrong, weeks 1-2 were awful at the time, and W5R3 was obviously difficult but this was something else. I can’t put my finger on why. I was mentally prepared for W6R1 being difficult thanks to advice on here, but wasn’t as prepared for this one tonight.

Has anyone else found this?

That was one of the killer runs for me too. The 2 10 minute runs, murder. Next one was much easier in comparison.

Don't know what it is about the 2 10 min runs, but gosh they were bad ! I dreaded that run out of them all when I restarted in June !

We found going back to intervals really hard after the 20 minute run, i think because it was only 10 minutes we went off too fast, go slower if you can the time is the same
