Notes

Cracking run...

Really didn't know whether I would be able to keep a strong tempo pace up for 6 miles especially after 2 runs in a row including a long run. Started out at a pace I wanted to keep for the first 4 miles and then hopefully have enough energy to pick it up over the final lap. Difficult to run these tempos on my own especially in the early stages where its hard to concentrate. Once I got past half way I became very focused on keeping my first 4 mile average at around 7.12 min/mile or below. Once I hit the last lap I was pushing quite hard and the lap was good. Blister developed on my right foot (pain as these are the runners I want to run the HM in) but it didn't affect my run. Was pretty wrecked at the end to be honest. Half lap was on grass and half on roads so could have been even faster if it was all on roads and if I had someone to run with. Nearly half HM distance at just over 7 min mile pace gives me a lot of confidnence for the future.... Storming run :)
