1hr 40’ moderate
Ran the same route as last Wednesday which by chance is part of the Inskip half marathon route. Felt very fresh from the offset I’m certainly learning that my Tuesday easy evening run needs to be kept really easy to ensure my Wednesday morning moderate is spot on.
Ran on feel looking at the splits it was fairly even pacing. There was a patch of slurry on the road that lasted about half a mile. The main problem is in the hokas this doesn’t give traction. I wouldn’t like to race in icy conditions with them so may have to have a think about what shoes to race in. Also the rubber has now worn thin on the sole and I can see the carbon plate. I certainly felt comfortable with today’s effort and it feels reassuring. It’s also the eve of my first anniversary since # my sacrum so I feel lucky to be out in all honesty.
