My intermediate half-marathon plan said "5 miles pace" on Saturday and "10 miles slow" on Sunday. Well, I did the 10 miles slow at Greenwich yesterday, but since Monday is a holiday I decided to leave the 5 miles pace run until then and did 3 leisurely laps of Crystal Palace Park this morning for a total of 5.76 miles.
Having said that, Crystal Palace is still a decent workout as the terrain is quite hilly and a good mixture of terrain underfoot. So not too "leisurely". Hopefully the hills will pay off when I do the - mostly flat - New Forest Half.
After a slow start I've still managed 69 miles in August so far, with another 5 to come tomorrow. So my total for the year now is 563 miles - which means I've completed 75% of my challenge - in 65% of the time.
