Tempo Run at Lunchtime

I set off for my lunchtime run not exactly sure how hard I would be able to push it as I could feel my calves from Monday’s Fartlek session.

So I took the first mile or two steady but my legs felt okay after that so I pushed a bit harder for the next 3 miles. I was slowing a bit on the final mile but it is uphill.

I was very happy with my run and enjoying pushing the pace a bit. My heart rate strap doesn’t seem to be working very well at the moment so I’ll try and new battery and if that doesn’t help I might need to buy a new strap.
