Fast tempo run home today. Felt hard but manageable, tried to keep up the pace on the hills and ended up with an average 7:52 min/mile, making for my fastest 10K yet – although it did include a few stops at traffic lights. My pace on the flats was sub 7:40 min/miles so pleased with that. Suddenly the goal pace for my 10K race a week on Sunday of 7:33 doesn’t seem quite so far off.
