17 miles

I went out for a long with Ian this morning.  We were running into the wind and this carried on for about 10 miles.  I changed the route slightly, instead of going down Horn Street, we went along Church Road and through the Army Barracks and went down Hospital Hill.  We went as far as the first bridge along the canal plus half a mile before turning back.  When we got onto the seafront we finally had the wind behind us which gave me a little nudge. When we reached 15 miles, it was 2.19.11 and my 15 mile run a couple of weeks ago was 2.20.53, a little bit quicker.

I had a good run today and felt strong.  The pace was comfortable and even had some sub 9 min miles. Zig Zag path is always a killer at the end, if it wasn't for that I could of carried on for a bit longer at the same pace.

Splits 9:49, 9:45, 9:41, 9:33, 9:15, 8:54, 9:13, 9:13, 9:13, 9:09, 8:58, 9:26, 9:06, 8:59, 9:01, 9:13, 11:10
Time 2:39.36
