run long 1:46:39 21.97 km (4:51 / km) shoes: Nike Equalon 2
Bit over half an hour warm-up, then stopped the atch and myself and did some run thrus, then sett off down the coast from Brighton southwards on a 5kn effort @ 10km pace. Initially felt like I had judged the pace alright, but as I progressed I realised I had still overcooked it a little and was really struggling up the miniscule rise at the end of the 5th kilometre. Probably should have aimed for something a little slower given how tired and dead my legs felt for the first 20 minutes today.
Walked for 3 minutes then began the slog home. Should also have carried some water. Was totally sodden and dehydrated by the time I hit a drink fountain at the 16km mark. Felt a little better after that, but a bit weary and I still do.
