My legs felt tired & heavy, I think that running 40+ miles this week has taken it's toll!
Having said that I knocked 11 seconds off my previous best time for this route!

First run in my new running shoes!! (Asics Gel-Pulse 2's)
Took it steady to break them in 
7.0mph all the way up to the last 00:03:50 where I upped it to 8.0mph!
Also threw in some inclines:-
5 mins @ 2%
5 mins @ 4%
5 mins @ 6%
Shoes feel good accept I tied the right one too tight which caused some soreness on the top of my foot! Doh!!

My first race
Think I started too fast as I tired towards the end!
Although this could have been because of the heat or the hills
Overtook loads of people & only a few overtook me
Overall I am happy with my time although I was struggling at the end.

Keep beating my Longest runs on the Treadmill!
9.0 miles is now the record!
Didn't intend to run this far! Wanted to run 4.25 miles at a decent pace to see what sort of time I could do it in! (Blenheim run 7k is on Saturday) Wanted to see what sort of time to aim for & did it in 34 minutes (32:40 really).
Once I had done this I slowed down to 7.1mph & just kept going!
Could have probably gone further but as the treadmill is in the Conservatory & it has been really hot today, I was literally cooking! Lol
Must get a thermometer in there to see how hot it gets!

First ever LSR for me! (although everyone of my runs is slow)
I know that it isn't that long by most peoples standards but it is my Longest road run ever! 
I chose to do the Grendon loop (route I do on my mountain bike) but Anti-Clockwise as it would be more challenging because of the long uphill slog in the second half of the route!
Legs felt tired & heavy,probably because even though I had a rest day yesterday I still did loads of walking!
1/2 mile into run I was thinking 'I can't do this! 1 mile in I was ready to stop! but by 3 miles I had settled into a rythem & my breathing was a lot less laboured
The last 3 miles were a killer though as it is mostly a long gradual uphill slog! I kept going though so I am really pleased with myself!
I expected to take about 01:15:00 to complete this run so I am really happy that I did it in less than an hour!! (although I should learn to pace myself correctly)
