Running Outside

Measured my Beach Road circuit today with the Navman and not to my surprise it’s a bit shorter than I thought.

Previously I’ve had it down as 4.24 km but after checking today it’s 4.10km. That kind of makes sense ‘cos on previous runs when I haven’t been moving, I’ve been a bit surprised at the average speed.

Suppose I should go through my old posts at some point and correct them.

Anyways, not going too bad today on a warm and breezy day. Coopers pace will do.

Managed to find the time to squeeze a short run in. Lovely evening for it too.

Just a short one today – Beach Road circuit, which is the same as doing Red Rocks only you dont run down the bottom of Stanley Road. Not going too great again, but I’m getting a cold and I had a crap nights sleep. Moan, moan, etc

Start:19:37
Duration:18:57
Distance:4.24 km
Ave speed:13.425 kph (that seems fast to me, think I’ll recheck the distance)

Tried again this afternoon but felt bleeding awful. Cut the run short and did my classic (‘cos I used to run this circuit all the time) Beach Road circuit. It’s shorted than Red Rocks and hence I went a bit faster average wise but I’m well below par. Sunny enough for late afternoon though which was nice.
