Day 25 - Terrific run today

The plan today said 70 minutes at Marathon pace. Seems a reasonable thing. I set out and immediately found my Garmin screaming at me to slow down.

I proceeded to carry on for the next hour with it continuously telling me the same and as much as I consciously tried to slow down, as soon as I went onto autopilot and got in the grove again the pace went up.

So in the end I did a whole mile further than expected and had pace times which were 30-45 seconds a mile quicker than I should have done.

I'm sure this was not the greatest move on my part and I guess if I carried on doing this then it would fall into the category of 'over training'.
