The psychology of sport… October 23, 2008
Last week, tempo run felt hard at 7:55 pace. Maybe I could try 7:50 next week. This week, J says…you are too slow. You are running your VO2 Max sets at 7:05, 5k goal pace is 7:15. Tempo should be no more than 20 seconds slower. So I run tempo tonight at 7:20 (1st blown interval) - 7:40 pace (the other 3 all deadon).
Voila…the power of expectations.

give me a holla…
