slightly wimped out of Saturdays run, decided to cycle there as I realised it was 9k each way which would have made it nearly a full marathon, did the half marathon in 1:29:59, although the distance markers were pretty far off and I realised we needed a 6:40 last mile a mile from the finish, which probably wasn't ideal pacing... then continued for another 5k lap at a little faster for 26.1k at 4:14 avg pace, which sits well with my theory that I want to do as much marathon pace stuff as I can.
10x800m aiming for 2:55 today, rest day tomorrow, then 3x20 threshold on Thursday, 10k marathon pace on Friday, not sure what on Saturday (supposed to be a 3hour endurance bike ride with 8k off the bike), and then 3 hours steady on Sunday, the slight challenge is that I'll be on the north Cornwall coast all of next week which equals hilly and muddy, so will be done to heart rate rather than pace, but the hills should make for a nice challenge and help build some good strength!
