30/01/10 - Inverness

Distance: 13.7km/ 8.5miles
Altitude: 5m/ 18ft
Temp: 2°C/ 36°F
Weather: Cold and bright

Snowfall overnight and a cold day once again make the canal towpath a good option for a pace run. Today I have to put in 7 miles/ 11.3km at a little under 7mins/mile (4mins 20 secs/km) so like my last pace run I jog up to the Muirtown Locks and measure my out and back from there. The wind is blowing a little in my face and it is quite hard work keeping up the pace on the outward leg but once I turn around the slight tailwind makes running easier, and a little warmer! In the end I'm a few seconds inside my target, not bad as the underfoot conditions are a little slippery at times.
