macroth said:Running sprintervals this evening (that's the plan, at least  )A random Facebook post got me thinking again about the 1 mile/1RM deadlift challenge (5:00/500lb, 6:00/600lb...). The closest I've been is in December 2019, with a 6' mile (actually done in July, but also estimated based on a 7k race in 12/19) and 560lb DL. At this point in my life a 5' mile sounds unlikely if I keep lifting at all, but maybe I could aim for 5:30/550lb? There's the mile/squat version, obviously, but that's out of the question  Running sprints, bring on the DOMs! The 1 mile/1RM thing looks like a good challenge, I don't think I could have done a 6:30 mile when I could dead 650lbs though and I'm sure the ratios get worse for me after that. | |||

After the last week the legs were unsurprisingly feeling it right from the start, I very nearly dropped the pace a couple of times and at some points it felt like I just couldn't carry on. Rest started at 4 minutes for the first couple and drifted up to about 8 for the last couple. CV was tough, but it was the legs that were the weakest link today. What a moaning bas***d I am Week 21 DONE!!!!!! | |||

jt said: And damn am I getting nervous! One week to get through then the taper, I am tempted to do a 1500 on `Sunday to hopefully boost my confidence. I just don't want to miss the 4x3 though I guess I could do the 1500 then 3x3. I thought that when I did my 2k, but afterwards there was NO WAY I would have been able to train properly. A max 1500 would be a good replacement session and valuable in the build up I think. | |||
