The club session was a run of nearly 7 miles with a 5K tempo stretch. I gave the Onitsuka Tiger Tai Chi a try. We headed down Maryhill Road and started the tempo section at the top of Queen Margaret Drive, continuing along Great Western Road, down Clarence Drive and up Crow Road. It was hard work to hang on to the fast pack as we reached Botanic Gardens but I was getting on OK in the shoes and may have recorded my fastest single mile for a Thursday night club run. The pack had fragmented by the time we reached Hyndland Road and I ended up fourth out of the six, with the leaders not too far ahead, but going down Clarence Drive I noticed my right foot was making more of a slapping sound, and by Crow Road I could feel a serious blister coming on, which slowed me down a bit. We stopped to regroup just before Anniesland Cross and ran back up to Garscube Estate. I restarted the Garmin for this section. Wasn't able to do any more running this week on account of the blister.
