It was 4 weeks ago I started my current streak. 4 weeks can you believe it. Back then I ran a mile in 9:57. Not on a track just on the road. Not the actual road mind but the footpath, so a bit undulating. But all good. While a track would be better you make do with what you have and as long as you repeat the process (to compare) in the same place you can judge progress
Last time I hadn't worked the previous night so was what you might call rested. I hadn't planned on doing one today I had planned on short runs probably streaksavers (1 mile) So today I thought i'll do a time trial and the rest of the week I can do short easy runs
So off I went. Walked up the mighty hill and started along a flattish part, slightly undulating but with a bit of an incline in the 3rd quarter.
Set my Garmin to 4 quarter miles so I get an idea how I do on each quarter. Last months splits in brackets
2:21 (2:26)
2:19 (2:33)
2:31 (2:30) the big up bit
2:25 (2:29)
9:36 today so 21 seconds improvement despite a night shift Will see how I do in another 4 weeks time
