Had no real aim other than running for a bit longer than usual. No much more but I know I need to be upping the distance of my longest run in January in preparation for the Brighton Half and the Meon Valley 20. Its all a bit of an unknown at the moment. My weekly mileage is high (46 this week) as I'm running everyday but I don't know what that will do to my endurance.
I set off round Tooting Common and then headed to Wandsworth Common. It was a bit muddy on the tracks so a little slippery in places in my road shoes but nothing too risky. After a slowish first mile I upped the pace and felt good. By mile five, I realised I was going really well with my mile average around 7:45 which was surprising. I kept the pace up and finished feeling really good with an 8 minute mile average.
It was also great to wear shorts and no jacket for the first time in weeks. I think I even caught the sun :-)
