Tonight was a steady run of five miles at 9:25 per mile and it was very hard. It’s only the second run back from holiday and the quicker pace really got to me. I was barely hanging on in the last mile. I knew it was going to be hard. I knew I’d lost a bit of fitness over the week off. I managed to finish though, at a pretty respectable pace. Rest day tomorrow then easy four miles on Sunday preparing for 11 miles on Sunday. That’ll be a test.
