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.

Tempo run (4 miles @ 7:37 pace)
GPS was totally screwy today, putting me several hundred meters from where I actually ran, so distances and paces were totally out and I ran to heart rate.

(4.5m @ 8:02 min/mile)

Tempo run (3.3m @ 8:05 min/mile)

Tempo run home (3.6m @ 7:39 pace)
Felt pretty tired all week after a busy weekend, so wasn’t sure whether to run this as an easy or tempo run. Decided to head out and see how I felt, managed 7:39 pace before I hit the hills, despite a bit of a headwind. Happy enough with that.
