7.2 miles moderate

Went out with the fast pack for the scheduled 7-mile club run, all the way along Canniesburn Road and back along Alderman Road. Wore the Lunar Trainers as I was expecting a steadier run with a race on Saturday. The first two miles were OK but by about halfway I was finding it a bit tougher. Nobody felt like pushing the pace so I managed to hang on, and in fact the other two slowed right down to chat to one of the other packs just before the finish so it looked like I was the first of the fast pack to arrive. Distance was 7.22 miles, time 48:45 for a 6:45/mile average. Pace splits: 7:02, 6:51, 6:35, 6:32, 6:33, 6:51, 6:58, 6:29.
