Luckily the rain had stopped and the wind had died down considerably since last night's run!
I actually felt too hot at one stage with all my layers on, which is a first for a long time!
The aim tonight was to run 4 miles keeping under 9 minute miles and after a warm up I did ...
8:49, 8:51, 8:58, 8:59
which I was delighted with!
I have found it hard to run at a faster pace after getting used to "plodding" since returning from injury, especially since I mainly run alone so I don't have anyone pushing me!
After the 4 miles it was time for the dreaded strides!
I did 4 sets of 30 seconds fast followed by 2 minutes slow and then jogged to cool down!
All in all I ran a total of 6.71 miles at an average 9:13 minute mile pace!
Pleased with that!
