Found out today from the Gmap Pedometer that my run from home to uni is really 10.5 km rather than the 10 km that I thought. I've run this route approximately 40 times since we moved, so that equals 20 extra kilometers that I have run in the last year. I ran a 5km tempo run this morning from home to half way in (21:36) and then a slow run the rest of the way (25:38). Discovered that my "halfway" point is really 5.3 km so my tempo run was nearly at 4 min/km.
Hopefully tomorrow morning I can do some 400m repeats.
I'm working on a 4 things about me list that I hope to publish in the next few days.
About Me
- RunDave
- I've been running seriously for about 7 years, but in the next year I am going to take on a far more serious run: a solo unassisted through-run of the Heysen Trail. I am supported by a wonderful wife and we have a couple of great kids with another one on the way soon. I have been a vegetarian for 10 years. It is ironic that I'm born in the year of the horse because I am allergic to them!

What a scoop, running all those extra kms and not even knowing about it. Nice pace for the 5(.3)k tempo run!
Looking forward to that list :-)
