Yeah under 70 minutes!!!!

I ran 22k on Friday but decided not to time it and just run it as I felt. Partly because I have not run this distance in training for a while and just wanted have a nice firm run without any time pressures.

On Friday afternoon I went to my Dr friend who is a muscular/skeletal specialist. Looks at you to and assesses if you are in balance and in particular around the hips area. Well of was almost okay bit tight in various parts that meant other parts were compensating. So there was about 90 minutes of twisting, pushing and some pulse laser ? treatment. 

He said I should feel 'loose' and should be able to run more freely.

I thought I would give it a test this morning with my usual 14.5k. I have got close to under 70 minutes if you call 71.xx plus close. Short story 69.43 for a 4.48 pace. I must tell him. So pleased to finally get under 70 at this time of the training for some later marathons and long term GNW.
