*************************


Using the cycle computer on my road racer I measured my usual 1 K course where I do intervals. It turned out to be shorter than 1 K. No wonder it felt easier to hit the target. 

After measuring exactly 1 K, I did two fast runs tonight just to see how hard it really was to hit my new target of 4:25. I was able to run well under it both times. But it was certainly a little harder than when the course was shorter. 

Now that I'm 100% sure about accuracy of the course distance, I feel even more focused to tackle the new target.
