10.35 km
137 ave HR
Struggled at the start of this run to keep the HR under 150. Waited for it to settle, it didn't. In the Nd I knocked the incline off the TM and through the last 40 mins Th HR drop and dragged the average down. I thought it may have been because
I wasn't fueled properly the 24hrs before.

5km pace session.
2.18km warm up.
5km - 22:57. No splits. Felt like fairly even splits. Within 1-2 each km
2.27km warm down.
Couldn't manage this any quicker. As soon as I set off to do the paced effort I knew there was nothing in the legs. I held a steady pace for the whole 5km though so it was a steady paced effort with what felt like very a very even pace throughout the effort. It was hard work and took a bit of mental strength to see it through as I knew that the 22:30 wasn't going to happen. A few positives to take - I got it done. Didn't quit. Still ran a reasonable time.
Had a terrible night sleep prior and the evening before my HR was a little elevated so there may be something underlying, I think nothing serious though as have been ok since the run. Took the dog for a nice long walk to keep the legs loose and have been ok.
