Sunday - was supposed to do 20k then the dorney Lake 10k but we got time of race wrong so ended up just doing the course 40 mins before the race! Still, the same training effect. Was extremely windy but just did laps of the lake with John Hutchins, was about 5k per lap.  Did 5 miles at 5.50 miling, then 10k in 32.07 (was supposed ot be mara pace and pace ranged fomr 4.50 to 5.08 miling depending on the wind! Last mile was 5.27 (HUGE wind in face). then had 5 mins breather while we worked out what was going on and did 10k on our own around the course. I did this in 30.53. Felt pretty comfortable throughout and was working hard but wasn't in bits at the end. A good 30k session. Then jogged for 20 mins to make 20 miles in 1hr 50. (20) Link here
