back on the road

beanz
first long run on the road since BM in January and it felt hard in places

bright sunny, with cold wind from the North - in my face on the way out

some back ache on the uphill bits on the return journey - at least hills will not be a problem at FLM

ran it at 70-75% HR - which turned out to be about the projected marathon pace, so that is looking hopeful


where: road
what: 12 miles
time: 2:42:00
pace: 13.4 mm
AHR: 136
tomorrow: swim if time

running in Cambridge

Nationals!
