Personal:

31 year old Triathlete trying to improve running speed. Started running 3 years ago but up until now (Oktober 2015) max. weekly Milage has been 18 to 20 miles. With virtually no speedwork.  For that mileage my running splits are just fine, I think, but only on shorter distances up to 10k. I do have problems transfering that speed to longer distance.

Working on uping the milage and maybe insert some speedwork to beat my PRs and enjoy running more.

Easy Recovery Run 8:00 Pace w Strides (5x100m) in the end. Was hard to get up in the morning and a heavy fog didn't make it easier. But after a couple of minutes running I was nearly awake and ready. Noticed some pain in my shin after my run, hopefully no shin splint. Have to monitor that.
