7.2 miles tempo

The club training session was a 5K tempo session along the canal from Maryhill Locks towards Drumchapel. Wore the adiZero Tempo. After some discussion with the rest of the fast pack I decided to run it as a flat 5K and treat the long warm-down as exactly that instead of trying to keep the pace up for a longer distance. I led the pack for the first couple of miles and fell behind Joe and Ben in the last mile. We ran into a headwind all the way. Went through 5K in 17:11.
