Best run so far (possibly!!)

8.5 K this morning according to Strava (goodbye Mapmyrun). I think I'm beginning to actually enjoy running. A perfect morning, cool with a very fine drizzle so I just kept going. Threw in a sprint finish. Thank you very much.

That sounds good. I’ve used mapmyrun for two years now and just wondering is Strava so much better? Maybe I should swap.

Good for you! When running is so good you expect music to come on like a film!! You did great- no stopping you now!

Good effort Pete. I've just gone through a short phase of being out of love with running, but getting excited about achieving 10km in the next couple of weeks. Hopefully the goal will keep me going.

I'm using Runkeeper. I've ditched the headphones and just have Mademoiselle shouting out each 5 mins and each km from my pocket. Keeps me on track.

I say possibly because Strava said it had just recovered from an error!!!! Who knows. I do know it was certainly my longest run as I did one of my usual loops twice. I'm treating myself next week to a Garmin (still undecided which one) so hopefully I can track my runs a bit more accurately in future. 10K I'm coming for you.😁😁😁😁😁Won't be long now.

Not what you're looking for?
