Thermometer said 0C, the cars were very frosted and a freezing wind was blowing from Killamarsh. Wrapped up for a 7 mile run, intending to take it steady and tiptoe over and around the frozen puddles. The nearside of RV was chill, with the wind in my face; the far side was sheltered and better. I noticed my pace was good and thought I’d press on and get out of the cold quicker.
For yesterday’s sub-64 minute run I was doing around 5:30 min/km. Today my splits were around 5:20 min/km so I thought it would be a decent time. Ended up beating my previous best for this route (run #434 1:02:07) and knocked well over 2 minutes off yesterday’s time
Felt my right leg niggle before, during and after the run.

Well done Steve. Good pace and HR in windy conditions.
Don’t worry Jeff, I’ll slow down for you when we get to the marathons! LOL
