just finished a 4.97km run, that lasted for 28 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 336.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
It was a lovely morning and I may not have needed an extra layer, but then I wore it on the way there and back when I was not so warm. I saw a couple of people I know on the jog to the start. There were plenty of people there with over 200 finishers. My regular friends were mostly there so we had a brief chat before setting off.
I generally feel like I will not do well on the way there, but it gets better once I am properly warmed up and I just kept going at the pace I could sustain. My friend Jeff came past after a lap and I could not keep up with him, despite trying. My legs just will not do any more.
It was fairly busy and plenty of passing went on, but I just focus on my run. As I got into the finishing straight I glanced at my watch and the time was a little better than I had expected, so I did what I could to get to the line and ended up a little quicker than last week. All my times this year have been under 28 minutes and I hope to get below 27 soon.
For the last couple of weeks I have had to dash off after the run, but today I could stick around for a coffee. One lady was talking about when she did English civil war reenactments and another has done morris dancing. We were saying how lots of things go on that many will not really know about. In my time I have been to a lot of motorbike rallies, but not recently.
I picked up a paper on my jog home and then jumped into the shower.
Enjoy your weekend and run free!
