I was down for an easy seven miles this evening, with the double-header coming up this weekend, but I didn't fancy that. I did ten instead - and while I intended to to keep to a gentle plod it was difficult to gauge because of the strong head wind on the outward leg. Analysing the stats on my return (the Garmin seems to be fine, though I notice the short test I did last night was recorded as starting at 18:00:08 on 31st December 2017!) the first mile-and-a-half was between 7:40 and 7:50 pace, but after that it was up and down anywhere between 8:06 and 8:59. Average overall was 8:17 and only about four minutes slower than on Sunday.
Must, must, keep off the gas on Saturday so I can go for a PB on Sunday... I have to remember that I'm just there to enjoy Coventry parkrun's birthday. Can I resist?
