Went out this morning overcast but warmer than I thought so I’d overdressed mmm should I carry on the gremlins asked. Yes I say and try a newish quiet route down a ‘D’ road. This will be a nice quiet run. Well a 40 tonne truck and a cement mixer had other ideas. Just room for me between the hedge and the track. Not happy but was determined 😣to carry on. Along the track and up the hill to main road which was closed so all the traffic was turning round. O what a nightmare. Ran on the verge back into village through a housing estate and back home only to find that for some reason both Strava and MapMyRun had been knocked off at some point during the run so only have my Fitbit to tell me I’d done 4 k. Mmm I suppose a run is a run but this one was not peaceful and relaxing 🙃🙃🙃

If it's not on Strava, it's not run! 😉 Well done to keep going despite all the annoying things life threw on your way!

Half of it is on Strava. I think when I squeezed into the hedge I must have knocked it off grrrrr

At least you had your Fitbit to tell you your distance. I once just plainly forgot to start my watch and only realized it when I was 20 minutes in or something. Could have been my first 5 km and I had no way of knowing the exact distance! I felt sooo dumb! With you it was an accident, with me it was just plain idiocy 😂
