I was grinding away at a fast start for no good reason this morning. The Silverstein album is pretty good, actually. I have to deliberately veer off some of the songs I know better and in doing so, actually found a pretty decent mantra in "Already Dead."
This morning started far too fast. The pace settled once I was finished with my first lap (the second 0.85mi split), but there is a definite latency period from when I expend my fast-twitch stores and before the slow-twitch muscles really settle for legitimate return on effort. That crossover point happens anywhere around 25-35 minutes, but usually before 30 minutes.
That's probably as good as any for why 10 miles has traditionally been my strongest event; I can reel in other competitors as I continue to accelerate while others die at around the 7-8 mile point. The crossover point hits somewhere around the 5 mile mark. That doesn't work for me on the 10km (not enough time) and definitely not on 5km or 8km (too short) distances.
