10K, workout #12

Today's plan is a steady long run to build endurance.

The workout

An 18K long run in heart rate zone 2, pace around 5:00/8:00. I created a route on Dynamic Watch, so the plan is run the following route.

Afterwards

The weather was dreadful, but the running went smooth, apart from the kilometer or two I had to run through a busy part of Rotterdam, which involved dodging a lot of cyclists and pedestrians heavily involved in their phones. Keeping a steady pace went well and heart rate stayed low. The rain didn't really bother me that much, as it isn't cold yet and once you're wet, you don't really notice rain – except when it really pours, of course, which it didn't.
