Julian Herbert came with me on his bike
Was great fun but probably ran quicker than would have planned but felt good
Accidentally got in a race with a Spanish lad. Managed to turn round when we got to 5.20 min miling as I don't think he would have slowed!!

Run 1:46:38 [3] 15.01 mi (7:06 / mi) +74m 7:00 / mi
ahr:149 max:165 slept:8.0 shoes: Adidas Sequence (Purple)
Woke up, 2 pieces of white chocolate toblerone and an isotonic drink first few miles. Ran along the seafront. A bit tired. Always find out and backs mentally difficult before the turnaround
Had a gel at mile 8. Either the caffeine kicked in instantly or was just a mental lift from tunes
Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing
New Order - Blue Monday
Fleetwood Mac - Stand back
Ben Howard - The Wolves
Finished on an absolute guilty pleasure
With good tunes and sunrise along a nice flat walkway this progression didn't feel particularly gruelling and was very enjoyable.
Pleased with the work
A wise friend has told me to be cautious and I'm taking this onboard

Lovely early moring run up and down the boardwalk. Felt good
Nice to have some flat running this week
Breakfast is ridiculous. Keep having fried bread. Reckon I could eat myself fat if only I didn't enjoy running

shoes: Adidas Sequence (Purple)
2 mile warm up
2 mile cool down
Ran up and down the beach. Fishermen in the way both directions but other than that great fun. Hard to get a rhythm as harder sand by the water often suddenly gets soft/wet
8 x 2 min/1 min r felt good
Ended efforts with a paddle in the sea and some daft punk, luckily it was dark and nobody saw me dicking about
