This run nearly didn’t happen – I felt quite tired by the time I got home from work and the intermittent showers were offering a perfect excuse to stay inside, but I was determined to get out there no matter what. Once outside things didn’t get much better, with a reasonable breeze making life just that little bit tougher. I was seriously tempted to cut the run short at 4 miles, but dug deep and carried on ending up with a pretty reasonable pace all things considered. Felt really good afterwards, so it was worth struggling on!
