Notes
Absolutely perfect evening for a run. Sunny and a bit cool but zero wind and the ground was firm underfoot. I started off a bit unsure as to what my pace should be but I probably started off a tad too fast. Settled into a decent pace and I seemed to hover around the 7 min/mile pace. After 2 miles I was at arounf 7.02 min/mile and I focused on not dropping the pace on the second lap. Second lap was strong and I was even able to pick the pace up over the final km. Legs felt strong the whole and the only prob I had was at times with my breathing but that's pretty much as this was my first speed session. Surprised myself by feeling strong right throughout the run but I put a lot of effort into this tempo run so absolutely delighted with the results. Speed never dropped lower than about 7.03 mile/minute which was a lot faster than I expected. Really happy with this run especially on the back of a good long run last week. Stamina and speed seem to be better than I expected at the moment...
