10.1 miles
To work: 6.2 miles @ 7.56 p/m
Back: 3.9 miles @ 7.29 p/m
The vernal equinox, the beginning of Spring, and an unexpectedly excellent day for running. Almost didn't make it as Dan woke up and was sick and I've been really suffering with stomach problems since the weekend, the feeling of almost being cramped or winded after eating. I'm wondering if I have a food intolerance of some kind, but as it seems to have gone today, I reckon it's just a virus. Will keep an eye on it in the next few days.
Hadn't done much since the 20 miler - a game of tennis on Monday and a cycle to work yesterday but today it was a gloriously sunny, albeit bitter, day. Felt a real bouce in the step in running through Bournville and by the Rea Valley, and after a good day at work, upped the tempo for a quick return home. Listening to some hardcore uplifting dance probably helped as I wanted to push it to a speed I'm hoping to maintain at the Stafford half at the weekend. Pleased to achieve sub 7.30 min pace. Blister's back after the weekend run but not overly worried, no more really long runs now until the marathon so hopefully it'll heal over in plenty of time.
