Felt a bit sore from last 2 days of gym, and didn’t feel like getting out today, but knew I needed it as my job is quite stationary. A very windy seafront run. Was intending to do the whole parkrun route but the wind was so challenging on the way back. Didn’t take it as easy as I should have, but only as I know tomorrow’s parkrun will be run at the pace of my 6 year old!
Went out quite fast / was blown along the seafront, so had good quick paces on the first 2km.
This has always seemed to be my strategy in runs, go out hard, slow down in the middle and then speed up toward the end again, which may be ok for 5km runs but perhaps not the half. So would be good to try and figure out how to properly pace myself.
