I was working away from the office on Tuesday so took the opportunity to run in my new road shoes on some tarmac – made bearable because it was off-rode tarmac – the C2C bike route from Whitehaven to Kirkland. I started the run at Cleator Moor, and ran until the bike track meets the road near Kirkland School and then turned around and ran back again. I didn’t take my Forerunner with me, so had no idea how far it was or how fast I was running, I just kept a nice steady comfortable pace and actually enjoyed it despite it being a warm humid afternoon. I was quite surprised when I plotted it up that I ran 12 miles in 1:30, which is 7.5 minute mile pace! Not bad for a non-road runner, not trying.
