Early morning run as I am in Walsall all day but after another long day yesterday I kept to a sensible pace and enjoyed it.
Took part in the Chipping Sodbury park run near Bristol this morning. A flat course compared with Rugby so the time reflected that but still very pleased with it. 3 consequitive runs of 5k and a new pb each time. Tomorrow will be shorter as I am busy all day.
Picture shows my sister in law and her daughter, and a friend of theirs who does the park run as well. After a tough day at work was really pleased with this time. Normal route so tried to manage the pace and I think it worked!
Managed a full 5k before swimming tonight and set my fastest 5k. Very pleased but it was hard going and I did have to walk for a short way as I set off too quickly. Very dissapointed that I had to do that but the first experience of leg cramps - not pleasant!
Another hard run due to a lack of time so chose to start with a long run uphill. Again a good time so I am building up my stamina to keep running at a faster pace.
Ran my normal route in reverse so it's harder than the other way - more inclines and longer runs uphill. Really worked hard and very pleased with the time.
