Midweek Training Run

With the Wales half marathon in Tenby, (part of the Long Course Triathlon weekend), taking place a week this Sunday, I felt I needed to undertake one more long, hilly run, and so I arranged to do this last night with Rebecca and Antony to keep me company.

The planned route is one that I had run twice before and so I knew it to be approximately 10.5 miles long. It begins fairly level for the first 1 ½ miles before climbing steadily until you reach the halfway point. It is then level for a while before beginning a steady decent back to the starting point.

It all went to plan and in fact I ran it at a faster pace than I intended, due to trying to keep up with the other two.

So here are some stats for you.

So my next planned run is next Tuesday when it is the fourth in the series of Leisure League Road Races at Pontypool, a full 10 km route which I have run before. I'm sure I will probably post something about that midweek.
