Treadmill intervals

Steady run home in slightly cooler temps
LSR around Hampstead and through Finsbury and Victoria Parks
Longest ever run! I’m conscious I haven’t done much hill running having done much of my running over the past month in Worcester. So I deliberately included a loop around Hampstead Heath which includes two big hills before the gentle decent down through Finsbury Park. Felt a bit tougher than I’d have liked but legs felt pretty good and slight knee niggle from last nights run seems to have gone. Few more of these should really set me up well for the Bristol HM.
