Marathon Plan

Wed -
3km Time trail - in training joggers - into a strong 20-30km/hr head wind on the road.
Tried to keep it even without going out too hard.
9min 51sec
Heart rate only got to 167

Max heart rate recorded in the last 3 yrs is 183 - and that was 3yrs ago.
I have had it to 174 over the last couple of weeks - Im sure it can go somewhat higher

I’m sure it can go sub 9min min soon.

Also ran another 2km to wind down, then another 30min of running circuits at the park.

Just did a google seach, and found that 1mile handicapt race - it’s in 3.5wks time. Or 2 weeks after my 10km - the 5th of May - this is the day before a Half Marathon - so i think it’s out of the Q.
