Week 6 Free Run

A nice short one this.
As i'm going away for a weeks break to Spain i decided it wasnt worth starting a new weeks regime so went for another unscheduled 2 mile attempt.
The evenings are getting dark extremely early now (and a little colder) so i actually started the run in total darkness. Seeing as i run around an airfield thats a bit of a problem as there are no lights along the roadway. Looks like time to invest in a reflective jacket and small torch!
The one benefit with the dark is i cannot see my watch until i finish so i'm relying totally on my body to regulate my speed.
The usual 5 min warmup and away we go. As i've run this course quote often i know roughly where the marks for 1/2 and 1 mile are and they both seemed to pass reasonably quickly. My breathing felt good, and legs still strong. By 1 3/4 miles i was on a straight road back to the car and decided to inject a little more pace into the last stretch. The last 1/4 felt really good and i ended the 2 miles feeling remarkably well. My recovery times are definately improving as well.
I'm just wondering what a weeks holiday with increased alcohol and food consumption will mean when i start again.
