Training

The aim today was just to run 60 minutes at a comfortable pace. How running for 60 minutes can ever be described as comfortable is a mystery.

Walked up to Peckham Rye park, which takes about 12 minutes. Then ran three laps of the park, then headed home to stop at the top of Kirkwood Road.

For casual interest, I timed my laps - something my previous routes didn't really allow. What is clear is that I fade quite a lot on my final lap: 18.08, 18.10, 19.15 for the last one.

This was a less steep route than usual and the distance reflects that: 5.35 miles in 60 minutes is a good bit better than the 5 miles in 61 minutes I did three weeks ago. It's still slower than last year's 10k, though.
