Paced 5k - 16:56

Battersea park: Cold (1 deg), light wind (6mph).
A little frustrated that I couldn't stick to the 17:20 pace. I was aiming too, but there's always a little voice telling me to "give yourself a few seconds buffer for the next k". Then before you know it it's the last k and you've got a 20 second cushion!!
On the plus side I felt pretty relaxed throughout & legs were nice and elastic.
Pace discipline definitely something to work on.
Hope you're well. Will give an update from the mountains next week... running in -20 at 3,600 ft will be interesting.
