Slowish 5k today

Out at 9am on this hot day, trying to get my run in before it got too hot or busy.

Quite shady along the canal path at that time - good! A few people were out - dog walkers and other runners. That word 'other' in this context still seems strange, even after 3 years! Well, I suppose I was a non-runner for 57 years before that, so it makes sense πŸ˜„

Quite a slow one, a couple of minutes slower than Saturday's Parkrun which was equally hot, but today I did have to stop a few times to let people pass, and also I think that running with others at Parkrun naturally ups my pace.

Probably one more this week, then Parkrun again on Saturday πŸ˜„

By 9 its too hot already here...7:30 is lovely. I never have the too busy part...lucky if I see another living soul apart from wildlife.

Sounds a lovely bank holiday run.
