marathon training week 6

week 6 has come and gone, time for me to rabbit on.
I'm pretty happy with progress this week, 55 kms in 4 runs. 2 x 20km, a 10 km run, and a 5km run.
The legs have been under duress, and times have been slower than normal. I ended the week faster than I started, encouraging...
My garmin gps heart moitor arrived today and I used it to measure the distance of my normal lap, which turned out to be 5.05 kms.  I've seen some brilliant computer graphics of these garmins in action. map of route, distance, time, heart rates, history and training programs. It will give me an accurate picture of what I need to do to achive my goals.
so my average pace for the lap was 10 kph, max pace 19 km. I looked at it on google earth, and at one point the pace was 25 kph - I do a sprint for a distance shortly before the end of the lap.
just a short posting today,
cheers dears!
