Strava fell asleep 🤬

Decided to do my 7K W3 run this morning out of order so that I can do 3 shorter runs next week in sunny Majorca. Set off dressed for the chill of a early morning run then after what I know to be the 1st K point I realised I had no message from Strava but I just kept on running & thought it may update later but no chance. Luckily I had started the stop watch so thought I might as well keep going & just stop when I see a time that I thought should be 7K.

Running reciting Laura’s 1234 in my head must have have finally sunk in as when I stopped I had done 7.05K.

Chuckling to myself on my warm down walk I stopped to do some stretching exercises against a lamppost when a guy on a bike stopped to ask me if I was OK at which point I burst into fits of laughter.

Really loving running now 👍

Gah to tech fails! But you had a good run anyway, and 7km is brilliant! 👏👏👏 Enjoy your runs in sunny Majorca, you lucky thing!

Yes good old tech. Strava did that to me a few times. I bought a Garmin watch in the end. 😄

Sounds like you’ve really got the running bug despite the technical issues. Majorca sounds like a great place to get in some tourist runs. Enjoy.

Yes think I may have become a runner 🏃‍♂️, just finished packing with 2 sets of running gear, shoes & a running belt borrowed from my daughter 😅. Maybe I should warn children & dogs on the coast esplanade Cala Bona to Cala Millor 🤣🤣
