Run 7K @ 39:56 (5:42 pace)

Nice. Legs felt heavy but still i was naturally fast. First 5K was easy 5:25, then for the last 2 (both mostly uphill) low 6s.
Watch says i'm improving. Gotta keep at it!!!

Run 7K @ 40:58 ( 5:51 pace)

Decided to stop going fast-easy on those runs and stick to the suggested easy-run pace, which is 5:50.
Not sure for how long it will last, its been a cool May but sooner or later Greek summer heat will strike us.
Now gotta up mileage.

Low aerobic zone run

8K @ 58:35 ( 7:19 pace )

Almost same pace with last week's SB (7:16) but for 1km more now and on up-and-down real course instead of treadmill.
Previous SB pace on that course was 7:25 , for 1km less also.
Great!

Run 8K @ 46:18 ( 5:47 pace)

Another no training weekend. Previous was election-travel-home, this one was packed-with-social-stuff (and alcohol lol). Damn it. I want more consistency!
On the bright side my runs are feeling good, even with this low frequency there is improvement in feel AND in watch numbers.
