    Sunday 29th - Dungarvan 10 mile

    Was treating this more as a fast paced long tempo run than a pure race and have to say it went exactly to plan. Slow first mile and then had the next 8 in and around 7:30 pace. Kicked for the last mile to go 6:57. Very happy with how it went.

    Fantastically well organised race as well, deserves all the high praise it gets.

    Mile warm up before.

    Very slow recovery run. Legs were feeling the effects of the race a bit but not as bad as if I was flat out. Nice to have an easy jog around though.

    Distance : 4

    Really enjoyable run today down by the river. Not been down this way before despite often hearing how nice it was. Will certainly be back again. Had a bit of a sore knee yesterday so was a llittle bit worried but it held up with only a slight twinge at times.

    Wasn't paying any attention to the time.

    Distance : 5
    Pace : 8:40
