2.7 miles hard, 3.2 miles moderate

Ran home from work in 16:57 for 2.67 miles, average pace 6:21/mile, HR 148.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 6:44 (135), 6:23 (153), 5:46 (161)
HR zones: 5.1%, 14.7%, 63.5%, 16.6%, 0%

In the evening I tried the same loop as last week of Kilmardinny Avenue, Manse Road and Canniesburn Toll, this time in the Saucony Hattori, to try out something a lot closer to racing flats than the Nike Pegasus 29 Shield I invariably wore home from work, in preparation for the National Road Relays on Sunday. It was going fine until halfway down Drymen Road when I started getting a pain on the outside of my right foot. This got steadily worse on the way back up Milngavie Road to the extent that I slowed down significantly for the last few hundred metres. 3.23 miles in 21:40, average pace 6:42/mile, HR 156.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:18 (150), 6:35 (162), 6:11 (157), 6:50 (158)
HR zones: 3.4%, 2.6%, 54.9%, 39.1%, 0%
