5.9 miles moderate, 3.2 miles steady

Took advantage of the improved conditions by trying my Dorchester Avenue route in the afternoon, extended to Garscube Road to add some distance after some low-mileage weeks and avoid roads I thought would still be dangerous to run on. 5.94 miles in 39:04, average pace 6:35/mile, HR 161.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 6:57 (149), 6:32 (158), 6:30 (159), 6:30 (164), 6:26 (165), 6:34 (171)
HR zones: 1.4%, 1.2%, 35.2%, 62.2%, 0%

In the evening I ran a loop of the old club 5-mile course from Bearsden Asda, intending to take it easy but picking it up a bit towards the end. Chest strap might have been loose again as the HR figures look highly dubious and should certainly not have been decreasing. 3.21 miles in 22:55, average pace 7:08/mile, HR 163.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:33 (167), 7:11 (164), 6:47 (159), 6:38 (153)
HR zones: 0.4%, 0.7%, 30.0%, 64.8%, 4.1%
