Note
(rest day)
It's now very obvious I've come back from hols not rested and fresh but rusty. Quite surprised given it was only 2 weeks and I was reasonably active. Given how the 10 miler went compared to shorter races before I went away, I'm tempted to cut back a little on intervals/tempo work and slot in extra double days at relatively easy paces.

Road running race 1:05:35 [5] 10.0 mi (6:34 / mi)
shoes: Asics 2150 (ii)
Battersea Park 10 mile
The splits tell the story: 6:07, 10, 17, 26, 32, 39, 43, 52, 56, 48.
What a horrorshow (not in the nadsat sense). If anything it was worse as according to the markers my first mile was 6:00.
I was hoping for 62 minutes and even getting close to 60 didn't seem wildly optimistic. Not pleased at all with the time.
More annoying though is that the limiting factors (rusty from hols, tired/dehydrated this week, too much effort on Thurs, warm & humid morning, early start) were all obvious - I didn't even need hindsight to know that 6 min miles was too quick a starting pace.

Crystal Palace park race
Oh for god's sake. Made a dumbass mistake at #14, didn't spot that the best route was a dog-leg. 2 minutes lost.
Felt very ragged running but looking at the splits my pace wasn't too bad.

"Easy" evening jog around Beckenham. Felt very rusty though and put in much more effort than I wanted to for the pace I was going.
