As it's a slow run day I watched my heart rate closely and the chart shows that I did a good job of staying in the zone.
The good news is that my ankle is fine; this might have been helped by the change of shoes too. Time will, or might, tell.

To Oxstones
As my ankle started to be irritated after 20km last week, it seemed wise to stay below that threshold. Today's run was 16km up to Oxstones and back. Actually I think it's harder than some routes of similar length as it is very much up and then down. This does give quite a strong training effect as the ascent is slight, but basically continuous for over 50 minutes. Then there's the eccentric loading all the way back.
