I didn't make it out yesterday because it became just too hot to bother by the time I dragged myself out of bed! This morning I was on the road by 6:15am. I thought that was early enough but by the time I'd finished I was wishing I'd started at 5:30.
Program :
16km easy & relaxed; at no set pace.
I took that as gospel and found myself so relaxed I was walking instead of running! I must have walked well over a kilometre in bits and pieces, on hills, on the flat; in fact whenever I felt like it which was probably quite a bit more than I should have. It was so hot that I ditched the shoes and socks and ran the last 3km on the wet grass in the soccer field and what a relief for the feet that was!
16km jog/walk
2hours 19 min.
AHR 113 (71%); MHR 127 (80%)
Wow! 6:15am. Are you sure? I'm dragged kicking and screaming to our long Saturday runs at the ungodly hour of 7:30! Sadly, the only way to beat this blasted heat.
