la Mare aux Canes

An easy run with Nico this morning as we were both down for the Ekiden the following day and didn't want to tire ourselves out. As we wanted a change from the usual Corra route and a slightly shorter run to keep fresh for Sunday and the ekiden we ran one of Nico's favourites: out to the Mare aux Canes and back through the forest.

It was a beautiful day and our run through the forest from Le Mesnil out to La Mare aux Canes was great. A slight uphill run heading out, before a slight downhill coming back.

We were also very reasonable in the pace we adopted, running around 4:45 pace out and around 4:25 pace back.

9.5km all up in 44:26 or an average pace of 4:40 per km. Good preparation for the race and feeling good again to come back from injury.
