3.4 miles easy, 6.1 miles tempo

Went out in the morning for a recovery run round my usual West End route, again wearing the Nimbus. 3.37 miles in 25:07, average pace 7:28/mile, HR 134.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:53 (128), 7:20 (134), 7:11 (137), 7:27 (142)
HR zones: 3.4%, 79.3%, 17.3%, 0%, 0%

In the afternoon I reached my weekly goal of 60 miles with a run up Garscube Road to join the canal at the fire station, down to Lock 27, down Crow Road to Anniesland Cross and back along Great Western Road, this time wearing the adiZero Tempo. After setting off quite slowly and battling sore quads early on I noticed the third mile split was pretty decent, so I persevered and managed to finish the 6.1 miles in 39:38, with the last complete mile inside 6 minutes. Average pace was 6:30 on account of the slow start, HR 149. Right hamstring a bit dubious later on.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:27 (131), 6:41 (144), 6:27 (147), 6:22 (152), 6:10 (159), 5:54 (164), 6:05 (172)
HR zones: 1.9%, 10.4%, 64.2%, 23.5%, 0%
