Hey TheEd,
Just relaxing after long run:
Total time of minute: 1:13:31 (13.4km)
@60mins: 11.4Km
Route: Mostly tarmac/path, run on grassy verges where could.
H/Rate Avg:129bpm Mx:144
Pace Avg 5:25/km
Went out OK, keep it as steady as could - cross wind on way back after 30 mins. Legs were strong, calves no probs - knees were feeling it a bit though, especially when got home.
Were well short of arriving home at 60 mins had a stretch at about 65 then trotted home to finish. Felt good even though were feeling the strain of doing a longer run.
Was mindful of the one minute less than 10k pace (5:00) however were struggling to keep this up as route is undulating throughout.
Overall pleased with effort and caught a glimpse of the stamina I built up from earlier in the year of longer runs I were doing every weekend - hope to keep these up from now.
What do you recommend tomorrow? Am planning day off work to do some DIY all day - there is running club tomorrow night but I can't predict easily how far the run will be - what do you recommend?
Cheers,
D
