nice to hear D .. and boy was the wind a belter this weekend
good to hear the runs are becoming easier
keep them easy all the time and if you feeling healthy towards the end of the run then you can increase the pace by 10 to 15% for the last 15 minutes
this pace I always used to describe as marathon pace .. the last 15 mins at marathon race pace
easy runs as a thumb during the week should be no quicker than 1 minute per k slower than 10k race pace
this is quite an accurate guide and it should be in line with what you able to run 10k at present
Hope this helps to keep you more relaxed with your running
