This week I only managed to go out three times due to work commitments although on Tuesday I ran 18.4km from Ascot to the A4 Bath Road.
The reason for the long distance was because I had a meeting with an agency in the morning and decided to run back. It was 12.30pm by the time I left and the sun was high. Following a route I took from Google Maps it lead me via the west of Windsor and towards Fifield which is south out Dorney. It had many different turns and one of the roads was just under 4k long. I came to the final leg of my run at Bray Marina which had me crossing the Thames and going via the Dorney Lake towards Eton and finished at the J Sainsbury's Burnham where I brought lunch.
Total distance ran 18.4k. Time 1'31''40'' Average pace 4'57''/km
It was hot but I ran a lot slower than usual and the legs managed to get a long run out.
That evening I also went to Burnham Joggers for training and didn't measure the time or distance because I took things slow and it included a lot of stop starts due to the club working out a Mile distance for the Lord Mayors Mile on 21st June.
Today I ran very early in the morning before working in Reading and managed b around the West Drayton area in 18'27''. Average pace 4'53''/km
