Training Run: SSD 4 Loops RSB

SSD = short slow distance, the lesser cousin of LSD.  Yeah, I made that one up.
Due to an all-niter, there's no chance of an early morning wakey-wakey, so an evening run it was.
Even then, starting at 6:40pm there's not much time to do it.
So, SSD it was.
Set the timer on my Timex to 7 mins, for a  Galloway 6:1 ratio, i.e. 6 mins run/jog with 1 min walk and repeat.

Weather: sunny
Shoes: Still not broken in  Asics Foundation 10
Route: RSB Loop
Weight:  80 kilos
Fitness level: 1/5

Lap 1 ---- 11:08 ----- 11:08  1.2km slow
Lap 2 ---- 11:17 ----- 22:25  2.4km slower
Lap 3 ---- 10:38 ----- 33:03  3.6km blister (ouch)
Lap 4 ---- 10:59 ----- 44:02  4.8km weak finish

Lesson learned:  don't tie the shoes too tight
And that's it for today.  Tada!
