Notes
Real shame that I couldn't finish this tempo run with Oscar. Quite a windy day but it was perfect as it was with us uphill and against us downhill so worked well for regulating pace. I got into the running very quickly and was really travelling well. I was up on my toes and the pace was faster than I've run in a long long time. Just before half way I got a tweak in my calf so stopped. Tweak was there for a few days afterwards so took a few days complete rest. I was really annoyed as I really wanted to see what average pace I could do for the 4 miles. It felt like I was running so smoothly and that there was plenty in the tank. I don't remember ever running so fast without seeming to put any real effort in. Even when I stopped I was barely out of breath - the other times I've done fast tempo's it was real eye bally out kind of stuff. Looks like cross training suits me as my legs can stay fresh so hopefully the tweak is nothing more than a minor strain and I can get back running 100% soon
