I need to start building my long run up for Beach Head Marathon. Last week I did 1:50 so tonight I target 2:30. I head of towards Crystal Palace. I don't fancy it and dawdle.
The run up through Elmers End to Crystal Palace gets pretty steep. I trundle up it like a mountain goat. I was going to run 1:15 out and then come back the same way. At the top I decide to loop back via Penge and Beckenham. Which I do, just very slowly.
Despite the slow pace I am still struggling. In the end it is 10 minute less than last week and a lot slower. Good to get a long run in, but I think I need to put it down to another off day. It was good to run over such a big hill as Crystal Palace though as I'll need the hill practice.
