Well when I first finished I looked at my watch and thought OMG I beat yesterdays time! but I now realise I was looking at the last split which was 36 seconds!
Todays session was intervals so I expected it to be slower. I also found out it is very windy out there!
As I 1st went out I was messing with my watch so was unable to take my splits for each sprint and was unable infact to see the time! So I did 2 lamp posts sprint, 1 walk (to enable coughing, splutter and nose blowing!) then 1 jog. According to my GPS, best pace was 7.48mm!! The last 2 sets were into a head wind so only go to 10.30mm!
As I finished my last set I jogged into the wind at a massive pace of about 16.30mm then turned the corner out of the wind and suddenly I was at 12mm pace! As I said it was windy out there!
Oh and the knee wasn't noticed at all which is good!
I also realised why I chucked on Sunday (sorry!), it seems that cos I am not a chap and used to gobbing (!) when I clear my throat of phlegm it makes me gag, if I do it enough you then chuck! I was close to this 2-3 times today! Nice conversation!
Still I'm pleased with today's effort - Grinning pixie!

I always thought that gloves where for snot but I see they have a dual purpose!!
aren't us runners nice folks! We have such charming conversations! (see the thread on toilets under FLM on the forums!)
I'll keep practicing!
maybe I could offer lessons? I have taught runningminibeanz how to get rid of snot on the run - just hope he never gets up-wind of any of us!
I'm doing Bramley as well, might see you there.
Take care
