Recovery run - again

An early morning run around the usual route through Maisons Laffitte. Despite the lack of energy, I forced myself to get up and go for a run just to keep the mileage up for the week.

I set off easily enough and sped up as I went around. The weather has gotten warmer and wetter again and it was quite relaxing to run around the usual jaunt. I set out at 4:45 pace and then accelerated to 4:35 pace before reaching 4:10 pace for the last few kilometres:

4:42, 4:36, 4:34, 4:33, 4:29, 4:20, 4:16, 4:13, 4:08, 4:08, 4:11, 4:11, 3:41 to finish.

A nice progression which shows me what I'm capable of when I get warmed up and enjoy the run.

12.8 km all up in 55:26 and an average pace of 4:19 / km.
