Warm easy run home
Intervals (6×1000m @ 7:18 pace)
First intervals session at the local track today, glad to have a flat, traffic free place to do my intervals now I’ve binned the gym. Got a bit carried away at the start and did the first 1000m at 6:22 min/mile! Managed to hang on for around target pace for the rest though, so pleased with the result.

Tempo run (4 miles @ 7:52 pace)
Not wind assisted this time, if anything it was slightly against me! Pretty pleased with pace, felt a bit tired towards end but heart rate stayed nice and steady.
