138 days to go - On the road again.

Route #5 Duration : 1 hr 13 min 35 sec Energy : 995 KCal Distance : 8.4 miles Max HR : 162 bpm Av HR : 150 bpm Mile pace : 8:45 min/mile I was really up for the run today, 72 hours rest has left my legs fresh and pain free for the first time since I started training in earnest. I am quite happy with the pace I achieved - and I was in my target HR zone (145-155) pretty much all the way. I expect to shave another 2 min off this time (to 8:30) before I move up to 11 miles on Saturday week. I do have to report that my right knee played up a bit towards the end, what is it about Tuesdays? I think I will have to go back to the knee bandage for the rest of the week. What on earth went on in the Ashes overnight? I am in shock, I went to bed early last night thinking that there was little point in staying up to watch a draw and woke this morning to find the Aussie's needing 30 odd runs runs off 10ish overs to win! I hate Shane Warne! - or at least wish he was English (in which case I would love him).
