Another week of exceeding the planned mileage - of course, last Monday's 12.5 miles got me off to a good start, then 5.7 miles of interval work, combined with running every day since Wednesday contributed to a total of nearly 30 mies against 20 planned. As with most of last week's runs, the times were disappointingly slow. In particular, the 4.29 miles around the town park, where I've been close - but not quite making it - to breaking 38 minutes. This week was the furthest away from that since I stopped wearing my boots!
However, today was a great improvement. 8 miles down to Coalport and back, 8 minute miles on the way down, and better than 9 minute miles on the way back up. I was as quick coming up as I was going down the last time that I ran this, and 5 minutes faster over the whole route. Now to taper off for the last week, with girly rest days, and softy short and easy runs in between.
