Not until a race, but until the end of term on my masters degree. The significance to training is that it will then give me more time for it, as I have a break in studying until after easter 2013.
Today a 500m reps session, and the first time doing anything faster than 1:37 pace (aside from the 2k race 2 weeks ago) for quite some time:
8 x 500m / 2:30 rest:
1:36.0 / 33
1:35.9 / 33
1:35.9 / 33
1:35.8 / 33
1:35.4 / 34
1:35.6 / 34
1:35.0 / 34
1:34.3 / 34
4000m = 12:43.9 / 1:35.4 / 33
Other recent sessions of note have included a 6344m row for the Concept2 challenge series last Monday:
6344m = 22:18.5 / 1:45.4 / 28

3:31.8 / 1:45.9 / 29
