Try going out without a watch, trying different routes, trails etc. Join a club and run with them? Just mix it up as much as you can for a while until you're happy again!
Tom my club is very relaxed - there's no structured sessions. We meet three times a week and you just run with people who suit your pace. It costs £20 a year, or £10 if you only go once a week.
Good sessions Tom, TOM, Bob and WJH. Sorry about the binned session Simon, I agree sometimes it's not worth pushing.
Race is tomorrow. I think I'm aiming for sub 7min miling, but will revise after the first mile!
Simon - my plan is to get a result tomorrow night then get some paces to train off. If I'm struggling to hit them and it's causing stress then I'll go back to running by feel!
I listen to podcasts on slow runs by myself, music during speedwork and nothing on club runs and in races and parkruns (including warmup and cooldown periods).
