I Will Tri

5K today. Was meant to do a parkrun but it had moved locations. I ran with about 10 others who'd turned up at the wrong place and just had a really good run.

Thursday good tempo session of 2x(5/3/2/1) minute intervals at about 6 minute pace and 5 mins to finish with a warm up and cool down. So I think about 5.2 miles there.

Then parkrun today was not perfect. Slightly too fast at the start but still finished in 19:49 so an OK performance.

19:29. My home course is deceptively slow. All on grass and just enough slopes to sap your legs without letting you complain about hills. I've done a lot faster on road. :P
