4th July 2013 - 1 Mile down, 205 to go

Time (mm:ss): 9:34
Distance: (miles): 1.02
Pace (min/mile): 09:22
Avg. Heart rate (bpm): 157

This was a simple mile, not fast, not long, not impressive. Thankfully though it was pain free, and that was the main goal of today. Yesterday I got permission from the physio to run again, as long as it was short and slow. The target today was to keep heart rate under 160bpm, and apart from a small uphill section I did that. Pace peaked at about 6:45 without feeling uncomfortable so I haven't lost too much fitness in a month without running. As long as the pain doesn't start tomorrow I can continue the training plan and get to the start of the 1/2 marathon.

On to the next mile.
