I'll go do a 3 km on grass down the local oval in my fivefingers some time this week, and let you know how I do.[/quote]<br />
<br />
Finally got around to it! <br />
<br />
Clocked the three in 14:46. With more training at that pace, I reckon I could crack 14. But as exercise, it isn't as effective as longer runs for me mentally or physically, and it's hard to change between the two regularly.<br />
<br />
Grass was fairly firm with a couple of soft corners, but mown flat like the bloody Council insists on (silly buggers wonder why it dies off in winter). It was a good change from concrete, but running in an oval gets fkn boring... -

Oi you stubborn old fart, I still reckon you should change up and do some higher rep stuff. Still as heavy as you can go, but up it to 10-12 reps.<br />
<br />
that is all!!<br />

5s are still 100 times better than me staying home and eating takeaways on the couch every night!
