Week off? What week off?!
7.3 miles in 57:30
Route: Windsor circuit 3
40 minutes of squash - Andrew 3 - 1 Jonathan
A new course around the Great Park - reworked to avoid having to retrace steps and exercise a greater part of the park. It is a fine course and I can see myself running it often. Andrew came along on his bike again. I'm going to buy him a megaphone and stopwatch for Christmas.
Fairly pleased with the time, although I really did feel that I went around the course well above marathon pace. I need to train myself to run a bit slower on the longer runs, but at the moment it's probably good to push myself a little. I couldn't keep up this pace for 26.2 anyway.
Knee felt ok (and still does this evening). Am seriously considering whether I need to see a physio - it's been pretty bad over the last few days. Will see how it goes over the next week or so and make a decision then.
Another squash defeat. Am getting used to it. Clearly playing squash after a 7 mile run removes my competitive edge somewhat. I did play some seriously hot shots today though, and each game was close. I think I can take him.
Day off tomorrow. Might run something short on Friday. Am going to look at trainers again. Probably do another 7/8 miles at the weekend.
