4.1 miles steady, 5.1 miles slow

Ran down to Cowcaddens and over the footbridge, up to the canal, through Ruchill Park, along Ruchill Street to Maryhill Road and back home via Grovepark Street. Wore the Merrell Trail Glove. Had a few chest strap problems and watched on Garscube Road as my HR rose to 160 shortly after I'd adjusted the strap, and then fell back to 140 after a few seconds. 4.05 miles in 29:13, average pace 7:13/mile, HR 143.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:22 (130), 7:14 (154), 7:14 (145), 7:00 (144)
HR zones: 3.7%, 27.0%, 57.3%, 11.6%, 0%

In the afternoon I ran along Great Western Road for my usual four hill reps on Gardner Street and headed back via University Avenue and Bank Street. Wore the Trail Glove again. 5.1 miles in 40:35, average pace 7:58/mile, HR 136. Max HR was 174.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:56 (124), 7:37 (134), 8:30 (141), 8:05 (144), 7:41 (138), 8:04 (139)
HR zones: 6.7%, 70.7%, 15.8%, 6.8%, 0%
