The schedule said just 5 miles recovery today but in order to get in an 80 mile week and have some fun today I ran to my local parkrun and back. 3 miles, warm up, the parkrun and then 2 miles cool down got me the required 8 miles.
I didn't do the parkrun flat out as my legs were a bit tired and I wanted to save something for the 20 mile run tomorrow. Instead I started at a steady pace and tried to go a bit harder each kilometre. The last km was pretty much flat out. This resulted in a 20:30 5K and a lot of overtaking fun. I am looking forward to having a real bash at a fast parkrun next week as a tune-up race.
