Took nearly 5 minutes off my time...

Had the best run this morning which is great knowing that next weekend is the big event, might have something to do with my new vest!

Started out not knowing if it would be a good run or not and got straight into the run again, like last time. For the whole journey I kept going, not even a 30 second walk! It would be funny if I put the conversations i have with myself onto a loud speaker! I tell myself that I CAN do it and then at times where I would usually stop for a 2 minute walk, I kept asking myself why?, and do you really need to? Your legs aren't hurting? Your not out of breath? So why do you need to stop? And because of that I ran the whole distance, the longest distance run in a training session without stopping! Great progress even if I say so myself.

Didn't feel as tired as I did last week (but that might have been because the temperature was ideal today). Only downfall about today was that I have a bit of a pain in my left ankle and my shoulders and neck have been a bit stiff. But got the aches sorted today by Deb Byers with a little shoulder and neck massage!

Here are today's results:

Distance: 8.73mi
Time: 01:39:06
Pace: 11:21min/mi
Speed: 5.29mi/h

Same speed and pace as my 5mile run on Tuesday and shaved nearly 5 minutes off my time from the last time I did this distance. My plan is to do another big run tomorrow afternoon, so this time really I should park over in sa1 to get over the 9 mile mark. However, may see if someone is going out at 830 from the village tomorrow morning! Followed by a few shorter runs in the week!
