23 minutes is pretty good anyway especially on a tough one. My local PR has 2 inclines one after the other and my PB was 23:32 last year, then I gave up on tempo and just went for distances but decided to try the PR again the other week and ended up with a new PB of 22.25 - figure that one out

A sub-20 is my new target now though.

Tell me about it - fortunately I was planning to taper off over the next 2 weeks anyway so I'm keeping off the road for a few days and will see how I feel for Monday, plenty of ice, ibuprofen and KT tape in the meantime
