This morning I was a little nervous as it was my 55 minute Magic run week 6. My daughter and her boyfriend were going to run 5k for the NHS so we decided on a run along the old railway track. I came downstairs at 8.30 ready to go only to discover it was a dreich ol' morning. We set off up the hill making our way to the beginning of the line. It was cold and miserable to be frank. Stony, puddles, muddy and windy. My company turned after 15 minutes and I after 20 minutes because a pesky farmer had fenced off the track! My pace was all over the place so I put a podcast on to concentrate on something - it worked! Unfortunately my timer hadn't 😩 Never mind I'll use the Strava timer as my trusty guide except that after 50 minutes it had paused ! 😡 Must've happened when I put my phone back in my belt. I restarted it and continued on my way for another 6 minutes- the extra minute to make up for all the gates I had to open and close. I'm not really sure how long I'd run for after the botched timing fiasco - I really must surf the net to investigate a watch 🤔 Hard run underfoot but as ever enjoyable because I did it!
