9.25 miles @ 7:07 pace
Took an 8 minute opening mile to get into the run. I'm more happy with the fact that I had converted my negative and downhearted approach to the run to a much more positive frame of mind.

Slightly over a half marathon in 1h34:40. Ran around 6:35 pace for mile 9 or 10 as I turned the corner, spotted a female runner and wanted to look good. Another was a few 100m away going in my direction so comfortably passed her and took the hill without slowing. Then spotted another nearly half a mile up the road so maintained pace and passed her too. Felt really good running faster than usual - felt light footed due to the reduced number of foot falls 
Mixed my route up as well. Ran along some grass verges next to 60mph road to get to the next village, Holton-Le-Clay, through that, along another 60mph road with a few blind bends and no verges for a lot of it (only half a dozen cars luckily) and then back into Waltham and around some of my usual running routes.
Boring last 3 miles running around the hospital a couple of times and where I live just to make up the distance (left shoelace was just holding on as well but wasn't going to stop for that or the fact my bladder decided I needed a toilet trip 5s after I started!)

Very slow long run 14m. Good to get some miles back in the bank, so generally pleased: the pace can be picked up later.

13 and a half miles exploring (and planting flowers.;-)). It felt sluggish and heavy-legged and hard work but the stats show a reasonable pace and an easy HR. Maybe I'm just being a wuss.

Really good. 11M steady- target 7:51-8:11. First half into the wind and maintained 7:50 then turned out of wind and brought average down to 7:44. Actually felt steady too, rather that hard.

5.2 miles - Not good, I didn't time it but I know it was slow.
It was a hilly cross country route with countless amount of gates and stiles which put you out of your rhythm. I felt like giving up, and then I got a cut right oln the back of my foot with 1.5 miles to go.
The pain was increasing (like the gradient of the hill). Awful. A poor run.
