Some numbers...

Yesterday, it was track day and we "rigorously" completed the pyramid workout as planned. Elvis and I did all intervals at sub-3:40 (except one), as shown.



Just for fun, we ran the last 400m as a "real race", starting on one lane each and staying there until the end. I finished in 1:04, , which corresponds to a pace of 2:40 per km. Just to put this pace in perspective, I did some calculations and here are some world record (WR) paces, for a comparison:

Marathon pace WR pace: 2:58
Half-marathon WR pace: 2:47
10.000 WR pace: 2:38
5.000 WR pace: 2:31

So at my 400m fastest pace today, I could not keep up with the WR holder in the 10.000m... for 1 lap... Humbling!!
