14 miles slow

After Saturday's exertions I took it steady last night and tried to maintain a 7.30 min/mile pace. This felt ridiculously easy at first and then increasingly hard until I only just scraped home in the target time of 1hr 45mins.

The downside of running in the warmer half of the year is the amount of midges around. Running in the last of the daylight there were swarms of them on the Middlewood Way and my neck was plastered with them. Sometimes you inadvertently swallow one which is a useful protein supplement I guess!
