PACE

I currently only have one pace - slow and (fairly steady). This has worked with the plan so far. I think the plan(from myasics) at the start is intended for people who are perhaps just walking. The pace asked for is 9:20 min/km and my average is 8:26min/km. This becomes difficult for me to sustain at the end of my runs. Coming up is a 7km run at 7:28/km pace. It seems like a big jump to me and I know there is no way for me to do it. Instead I am going to make a mini goal of running that particular run at 8:15min/km.

The Commonwealth Games are on just now and I have been very inspired by Steve Way who went from being overweight and a smoker to representing his country at marathon distance. A testament to hard work and commitment.
