88 days to go - Conversion run in the sun

Route #16 Duration : 1 hr 16 min 12 sec Energy : 819 KCal Distance : 8.0 miles Max HR : 141 Bpm Av HR : 131 Bpm Mile pace : 09:31 min/mile My new training schedule called for an 8 mile run in 80 min (Easy/conversion pace) today and as you can see I was a little faster than I should have been, but my HR was solidly in the conversion zone, in fact the calorie counter estimated that 50% of today's energy expenditure was fat burning, so I reckon that is mission accomplished. My left hip started to hurt a little after an hour or so, but I am hopeful that it is slowly getting better. The weather was fantastically bright and sunny for most of the run, with only a brief shower towards the end. It is quite a relief to have some proper winter weather at last, I quite like the look of the winter countryside in the sun. approx 80 mins easy
