One swallow does not make a Summer
After last Sunday's long run and no speed-work for a week, one might have expected another feel-good long-effort this week. but alas I ran out of steam on yesterday's long run after about 8 miles. I did manage to get to 12 miles at reduced pace, as I didn't fancy a 4 mile walk home. I think my main problem last week was lack of quality sleep (I must stop falling asleep on the sofa watching TV) and lots of work s***.

P.S - all is not lost however, as despite the above, this was the best long run since my comeback so far, at least in terms of average pace generated in relation to effort expended (average heart-rate). The glass is half-full!
