This should have been a 5 miler but as I have been seriously slacking recently I upped (real word, honest) it to a little over 7 miles. Like all of my best decisions it wasn’t a conscious one… I had a bit of a Forrest Gump moment and just kept going. Just before setting off I did have the impending Great North Run in mind and set my trusty Garmin virtual partner to 6.55 mph, at that speed I’d finish the GNR in 2 hours.<\/p>\n

This morning I ran the 7.32 miles in 1:03:12, that’s a thoroughly respectable pace of 8:38 min\/miles or 6.95 mph. According to the ever optimistic fetcheveryone<\/a> predictor thingy that pace would see me run the GNR in 1:57:07 and a full marathon in 4:04:12… I don’t think so!<\/p>\n
