I was intending to do the Hastings Parkrun as I was going down to visit my daughter. It meant I had to leave home at 5.30am but a plank phoned me at 3.30am....you guessed it, wrong number! 🤬

That scuppered my early start as I struggled to get back to sleep. I looked at the route I was taking and plumped for Tonbridge which is en route. What a beautiful morning, clear skies and a gentle breeze, perfect I thought 🤗

I started off and within 2k I was cooking, but the lovely scenery running around the lake soon took my mind off my overheating.....must run with a bottle of water next time 😊

Strange how Strava states the obvious...”You worked harder than usual” and “That was tough” HR was thru the roof, no wonder the gremlins were screaming at me 😱

Happy running guys, especially those running Monday 🏃🏃‍♀️

Nice one Ted. Your have to love these apps when they state the obvious as you say. Still it's confirmation if you like that you are within your rights to feel it was a hard run.
