Had a busy week with work so haven't manage to 'pound the pavements' and it hasn't helped that the sun hAs been shining.
Headed out to the usual spot knowing it was going to be a tough one because of the heat, and was planning the usual 9miler!
Started off ok, but the sun really was shining down... Great for a tan though!
Put my mind to it and was determined to do the best I could. Was hoping to get under 1hr 40 but really slowed down for the last few miles as my chest was getting a bit tight?
With the big day in just 2 weeks I'm really going to have to put in some shorter runs mid week and really focus on my nutrition as I think that had a major factor to play in today's run! Planning another long run tomorrow and really need to get up to the 10 miles somehow... Hopefully will go out with a few others!
Distance: 8.65mi
Time: 01:43:58
Pace: 12:01min/mi
Speed: 4.99mi/h
