Another Progress in speed

This time, I change to the lighter weight Nike Katana. Achieve the average pace of 6:54 in the 3.3km loop. I also work harder and have two 400m split meeting the 6:30 pace.

Racewalking at 7 min/km

I am doing more racewalking training instead of running. Today, I have another one. In my last couple of training, I did not swing my arm active enough. This time, I swing it more active than ever before. Result is the fastest ever 3.3km that I had. Managed at 23:20. Pace is just a bit slower than 7 min/km. And that is with a regular running shoe, not a light weight racing flat.


The three splits that I was slower than 7 min/km are all containing uphill segments. The average pace in my last couple of racewalking trainings:
