Well the first long run of the year, and the first since the beginning of December 2010. The run was from Potter Heigham, Norfolk via Hickling to Sea Palling and along the coast to Waxham, Hornsey and onto Winterton. All in all a total of 25Km. The run itself was dry at least with quite a head wind on the back half, but you would expect that especially in Norfolk. The first 30min was a gentle pace just to warm up at a pace of about 135-140bpm, then 1hr50min normal race pace at 145-155bpm. The first 4kms splits were in the 6mins but the next 14kms under 6min, the last few kms varied in the 5mins and 6mins. All in all total time of 2hr30min at an average pace 6min01sec per Km, not quite where I want to be, I'm aiming around 5min30sec to 5min45sec but considering this was my first long run for a month not bad. The new shoes worked out well, although I did tape up all my toes which did help. Overall a good run.
