I’ve been training with Runna for a Fast 5k attempt in June, and this is weeks 5-8 of my training plan. While things aren’t quite as hectic as in the last installment for weeks 1-4, I’ve still got to juggle attending the Boston Marthon and a trip to Japan for work. But on the plus side, at the end of that trip, I did get to hop in a race and see where my 5k fitness really stands.
