Nice day for a run, although felt like I was heading into the wind for most of it. Course was a bit boring, but flat and quick. Didn't like the tannoys they had round the track playing tinny pop music mixed with garbled announcements. Traffic was busy on the way in, but completely clear on the way out.

All in all, fairly good day, but not one I'd rush back to.

These are down to £135 on Amazon at the minute (not as low as the £125 they sometimes get to, but lower than the £140-160 they generally seem to hover around).

It's just spam though.

Have you got a smartphone? The micoach app is free, could try it out for a bit to help decide whether you want to supplement that with the footpod/hrm. It has gps tracking, can be loaded with training plan/diary, and has voice coaching (reads out pace/time etc in-run).
