A flyer

18M crescendo long run building to marathon pace

I thought I might have to take my long run a bit easy after yesterday's efforts. I delayed the run until the evening to give me maximum recovery. As soon as I was out of the door, I realised I was on for a good one. It was another of my central London sightseeing affairs. I slowly built the pace. My legs felt amazing. The limiting factor was my breathing if anything. Though it all felt pretty good. By the end I was flying. I didn't time it properly, but I was going well under 5.30 pace by the end. A cracking end to the week.
