As I have currently started running again, it is time to remember the back at the old days where I my pace was more often anaerobic than aerobic. My speed of today is most often 5 min pr. km, but hopefully getting closer to 4 min pr. km as I earn some more milage.
Looking back at my days of glory, where I easily did 60 sec on the 400 and every hour of training was spent with spikes, it is a bit sad to see that I have totally lacked motivation for the last 10 years.
Now it feels like something is missing if I don´t run every other day.
PBs of old:
100m: 11:21
200m: 22:41
400m: 49:25
800m: 1:56:5
There is of course a great disadvantage in beeing used to high speed; I can´t get enough of it. If my pace is not sub 5 min pr. km it feels like I have not been running, and I get disappointed in myself as my pace is currently not under 4 min pr. km in a 5 km run.
That is now. Change will come. Soon.
