5.2 miles slow, 4.9 miles moderate

Went out with Natasha before breakfast. We ran to the Botanic Gardens to meet Tanya, then up Great Western Road and Dorchester Avenue, and onto the canal. Quads fairly sore. I headed back down Maryhill Road at the locks. Picked it up a bit at that point but couldn't really get moving. Distance was 5.17 miles in 46:23 for an 8:58/mile average.

In the afternoon I headed along Great Western Road, down Hyndland Road and Benalder Street, along the cyclepath beside the Clydeside Expressway, over the footbridge near the SECC and along the riverfront to the office to collect the car. Wore the Newton Distance S for a change. Managed some decent splits after Hyndland Street although the footbridge cost me a few seconds. Finished the 4.93 miles in 32:22, average pace 6:34/mile, HR 151.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:19 (138), 6:41 (148), 6:16 (152), 6:28 (159), 6:04 (162)
HR zones: 3.2%, 4.1%, 71.2%, 21.5%, 0%
