Straightforward week, no problems. 10 miler a little disappointing as it is a flat course and I was aiming for around 65. Went as hard as I could which is all you can do I suppose.
Nice PB MM-all those steady miles have obviously done good.

Good start to the week. Guaranteed a PB (66:13) because it was my first 10 miler-paced it ok on an undulating course with enough left in the tank to push on at 7 and 9 miles-pretty happy with it! Also did a couple of easy strength sessions with kettlebell (Wed and Sunday).

Very gentle recovery week for me this week after London. FLM was interesting if only because for reasons I can't fathom (foolishness maybe?) I ran too hard (nearly HM effort) between miles 3 and 9. Started slowing down at 10 and predictable results from the early miles later on. Finished in 3.25. Enjoyed the day (except for miles 16-26) and re-learned a lesson about pacing I thought I already knew. Another easy week for me this week.
