Weston Prom - plan was to try and pace Diki to a PB of 33.45. In the event, Diki nearly paced me to a time of 33.45. HR was shocking within 3 minutes up in the 170s, had to ease off as HR reached 179 after half a mile and Diki pulled away a little. Managed to catch him back up in the return leg and work with him on the way out for the second loop. At the final turn, Diki began to suffer - my HR was touching 180, when with about 1200m to go Diki was shot, so I pushed on to see what I had - managed a 4.24 1200m - with a new max HR of 192. I had never seen my HR above 183 on a run before which is scary. My knee felt pretty stiff from early on, but didn't get worse and is feeling not too bad again now...
