8.4 miles steady

Legs were heavy after yesterday's cross country so it was the afternoon before I finally got round to dragging myself out, in cold but reasonably dry conditions. I was going to run an old loop of Garscube Estate and North Woodside Road but I ended up running the same route as last Sunday afternoon. Compared to last week, I was slower over each of the first six miles and 45 seconds down by that point, but I ended up chasing a sub-7:15 average along Great Western Road and picked it up sufficiently to record a faster time overall. 8.37 miles in 1:00:29, average pace 7:13/mile, HR 138.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 8:06 (118), 7:30 (129), 7:06 (141), 7:27 (143), 7:04 (145), 7:12 (141), 6:43 (145), 6:55 (144), 6:34 (155)
HR zones: 6.6%, 32.7%, 60.4%, 0.3%, 0%
Weekly total: 31 miles
