Best 20 miler this campaign in that it felt relatively comfortable the whole way and I was able to pick the pace up in the last 8 miles without feeling it was ever hard.

Ended up running the 20 miles in 2:28. 5 mile splits went:

37:55 142 7:35
37:38 146 7:32
37:00 148 7:24
35:57 149 7:11

Really pleased as HR didn't increase too much over the last 10 miles despite the pace increase.

Conditions were perfect with no wind or rain and quite cool. Usual route down the canal tow path although still having to start and finish on road whilst bridge repairs continue.
