Went out early doors today and did a nice round 20 miles. Didn’t take any water or fuel but felt ok.
The main takeaway was that doing it in AlphaFlys was a clear sign that my old trainers with 1,000km on them are definitely dead, as my legs feel totally fresh (blistered arches notwithstanding), whereas 10k in my old pegs makes everything hurt. Also meant I had a lower HR than usual for the pace which was nice.
Ordered a pair of Novablast 2s for daily plods almost immediately after the run.
High cushion from now on.
