I get this... and it makes a lot of sense. Doing the hard runs is the 'easy' bit (particularly if I go out with OATR), it is the easy runs I really struggle with. I am never sure how easy, easy needs to be. If I wear my heart rate monitor it very quickly moves through zone 2 heading north, often before I've left the house. It feels as though I need to be walking to achieve this.
Where I have got to thus far is to keep my pace above 9min/mi along the flat. As much as you can do 'flat' in Lewes.
Does this sound about right?
