This will be the last long run along the Avon Trail before the half marathon as things start tapering down next week. A carbon copy of the run last week, though I was a little slower to start as I was mentally designing an experiment to test perception of time under varying situations. Hopefully the course being flat and tarmac, and the fact that I won’t be carrying my water and fuel supply with me will mean I can go a bit faster on the day, but that last mile looks like it’s going to be a killer (particularly given it is going to be over cobbles and partially uphill like the end of the 10km).
