Along the last mile and a half of the gnr route, use my watch to measure the distance



What speed are them 1.5ks at mate, I'm pretty sure you run around the same speed as me reading previous post and I will eventually be upping my speed training, a little help on what speed you run them at will give me a aim, realistic our not its nice to have a idea

tried to hold decent 5k pace (4:15 / km ish) but fell away to 4:30 / km on the last 2 loops. I don't know if you know the route but it starts at saltgrass and goes upto alex bridge and around to bq - 500m ish recovery jog back to salty and off again.

The bank is steeper than you expect like, I was there Monday, ran down past b and q, to the salt grass then up too the queen Alex bridge..
 
Went for my first run in 2 months tonight. Fairly pleased, tried out my new (actually I bought it about 6 weeks ago but I'm a lazy bugger) GPS watch, even had the heart rate monitor on, the lot. Anyway 3.84 miles in 28.57 was the verdict. I'll take that for my first run out. Gonna maybe do a cheeky 5 miler tomorrow to earn my couple of pints at Bolton!
 
Got a bit of a tight hamstring, but going to try a gentle 5k jog to get the paper.
 
3rd 5k of 2013, starting to feel stronger but still 2 mins or so off what i like to run.
 
First run since a bout of flu over Christmas, a very steady 2 miles as legs were aching and nearly coughed up a lung, but felt better for it.
 
4.5 slow miles this morning, proper doing my head in I have no speed our stamina at the moment just got to keep running and it will come back, I HOPE
