Lovely 4K into the woods

Really enjoyed that! Ran all the way up the steepest side of Cannon hill, disappointed as Garmin seemed to screw it up as on the segment it said I was at 11.2/km when my average for 1st km was around 8 and the hill is over 1/2 of it! But got a 400m PB and upped the distance to over 4km so back on track. Had to bring Monday run forward a day as have my 1st shift as a volunteer in a vaccination centre tomorrow. 1st time I will have been ‘out to work’ for 7 years (I usually work at home) so I will probably jump out of my skin when the alarm goes off! Does jumping out of your skin constitute exercise? ;-)

Fantastic, a PB yay 😀, I’m off out later to try out some intervals, time to mix things up a bit . As for Mr Garmin 🙄 Good luck with your new role tomorrow, (yes jumping out of bed counts, just don’t pull a muscle 😘) I hope it goes well, feeling very grateful for all the work and volunteering going on at the moment, heartfelt thanks to everyone involved. 🙏 🤗🤗

I used to be a nurse many moons ago so thought I should put my skills to work. Only going to be a Marshall looking after those who have had the jab but good to feel useful!!

Great that you did a 4k with hills to boot. Also marvellous to hear that you are working in a vaccination centre. I can't imagine a more positive thing to do right now!!!!
