Hi TheEd,
So far so good with the achilles, I'm still working on recovery though.
The 1 hour easy was good, 12.1km in 58:20 (avg pace 4:49) and avg HR 142.
Had a great 5km paced run this morning. Was lucky enough to get access to a synthetic track, first time I've run on a surface like that. I started a little too hard then pulled myself back for a few km. While I was running hard it wasn't a 100% effort until the last km when I pushed myself a bit hard.
Finished in 19:42 which is great as I wasn't expecting to go sub-20. I used my phone for timing which recorded 5.22km so didn't get accurate splits. Average HR was 163.
Thanks again,
Daniel
