Just in from this weeks tempo run. It is a lovely day with a light breeze. As I left the house the breeze felt quite cool.
I ran a mile warm up, through the wedge to Craigdu. Then reset my Garmin and began the tempo.
It didn't take me long to get into a reasonable pace, the goal pace was 7:15-7:30. The route took me along North Dumgoyne, Craigton Rd, Milngavie Road to Canniesburn then up Drymen Road.
I am still struggling to keep pace on the inclines. The last mile really brought the average pace down as I just could not hold my rhythm as I turned up Drymen, that light breeze felt like a strong wind as it turned against me....I actually wonder if the struggle with that stretch of road is all in my head now as I expect to slow there! I did fine on the west end inclines last week.
