Another Saturday morning, another run to The Meadow with my running partner, and another run PB of 56:00. Woo hoo!
OK, it was only 15 seconds off the PB and not the massive chunk I took off last time I did this route but I didn't set out with any intention of running fast, only to get some running time in my legs. It was only when I got to my first checkpoint I realised that I was obviously running OK and that maybe the "Magic 55" that Sags had put in my head might just be a possibility. The last third was done at a proper effort, to the extent that I was dragging Bandit along faster than he seemed to want to go (poor thing was quite tired by this point).
Anyway, the good news for Sags is that a hard run effort today might just take the edge off my bike legs for tomorrow.
Only 5 days to the Brize Sprint and I am pleased to say that I reckon my cycling and running are the best they have ever been. Just need to prove it in competition now.
Train smart folks.

Fighting talk T Man! Look forward to a possible pb at Brize if the weather holds.
Couldn't find Brize on the weather map but Lyneham on Wednesday is forecast to be 15 degrees and cloudy (with the sun peeping through occasionally) with 6mph SE wind, so conditions should be about as good as possible.
You forgot the small business in the pool Turbo! It ain't a duathlon you know dude, they mended the boiler!
