new set pace seems to be in the 4:54 range. not gaining any fitness now, this was just to stay loose.

got a cold on friday. seems to be progressing quickly, hopefully it'll be resolved before the race this weekend.

saturday

- 3k test: run x 2 km; test in 11:52; run x 2.15 km
eh, felt kind of bad tbh. congestion didn't help. still, sub-20 pace and a negative split despite running an out-and-back that finished on a gentle but continuous uphill.

bad headache that got worse as day went on, despite ibuprofen and a nap. accompanied by mild nausea. no run. damn it.

- extensive tempo/pace practice: run x 2 km; 1 km in [4:00, 3:57, 3:59] w/3:00 light jog rest; run x 1.9 km
didn't feel too great going in but this was okay.

taper is going to happen a bit by accident, which is fine. will run tomorrow and thursday and then going to the netherlands for the weekend. may run may not, it's for gf's mom's bday so she's driving and not sure how much flexibility we'll have. back next week and will run a couple of days but very light with maybe a few short race pace intervals thrown in for practice, then 2+ days full rest.

went to rugby this weekend to visit friends of gf. did a bit of a ramble yesterday around kenilworth castle but not enough to count as exercise. felt extremely british: wellington boots, walking coat, passing through livestock gates every few hundred meters, umbrella-free in the steady rain and chill. followed by a late pub lunch with mulled cider. good shit.

today

- run 14.5 km in 1:18:20
getting a little chilly. hands were cold enough to take some time to unstiffen after i got back. felt fine.

- extensive tempo: run 2 km; 2 km, 1.5km in [(3:44, 3:49);(3:45, 1:55)]; walk 500m; run 1.3 km
meant to do 2 x 2km but bailed halfway through last km. have to remember that the point of these workouts isn't to kill myself as if it were a race. related: race is in less than three weeks and i should start thinking about some kind of taper.

again with the no-watch-checking sub-5:00 pace. helps that it's getting chilly i think.

accidental 10k "PR" of 49:38. did not check watch once during the run, just let pace take care of itself with occasional breath check-ins. averaged 4:53, nice.
