Tempo Run ~~~~~ 9km

1st of May and Wow!  What a glorious morning!  Sunny, blue skies and not a cloud in sight.  Time to throw your job away!

Time to run, for sure :Tempo Run

2km easy
5km @ MT (mid-tempo) 8:20 pace.....still basing this on a 40 min 5km  ...seems a bit slow for a tempo effort, but that's what it says in the program.
 2km easy.

First 1km of 5km I ran for the first time through the newly opened section of Renwick , a 1km loop of new road where, as yet, there are no houses or cars, but I noticed many of the blocks of land had already been sold, probably over Easter weekend.  There were several tents nearby where anxious buyers must have camped to be first in to get the block they wanted!  For now, it gives me an extra kilometre to use in peace and quiet.

5km with new 1k loop at start.
