Another Track....Workout #1

My New Track!
This actually worked quite well as a makeshift track, using a course around the school and on the road.  This gave me a distance of a little over 300m and then identified as closely as possible all other distances by some object such as a tree, lamp-post etc.  Other than 1200m, which happened to be spot on, the others were a little over but only by a fraction before stopping the Garmin.  None were short!


Program : 10-20 min warm-up
Based on 5k time of 33 min....1200m (7:47);  1000m (6:26);  800m (5:07);  600m (3:50);  400m (2:32);  200m (1:16).
10 min cool-down.

....and the time for each distance was :  7:33;  6:25;  5:05;  3:48;  2:28;  1:13

Total distance  =  6.2km (incl 1k warm-up & 1k cool-down)

  1. You're clever! Like the track, but bet you have to slam on the brakes for those sharp corners ;)
