Another short run of just 3k

so with a day off today and rain forecast to be on the way I thought id get out for another 3k .

I have been sticking to that distance as I know its comfortable at the moment.

The last thing I want to do is to jump back in with too much too soon .

I can certainly tell I have lost fitness over the last couple of months.

It was a misty morning and pleasently cool as I left the house for my warm-up walk.

Tech behaved today and I just followed the NRC 3k run for a change .

I also saw my old friend the horse for the first time in ages ๐Ÿ˜

Thankfully no issues to report, but its still feeling a bit of a slog at the moment, but thats fine !

As I have said before, im in no rush !

The last 3 runs have all been extremely similar in pce and HR.

I may do 1 or 2 more at this distance then maybe start to stretch them out a little, as and when I feel the time is right .

I am still some way off feeling 100% but happy im feeling good enough to get out again .

So, back home for what will be a quiet day.

A relaxing bath , then a light lunch and settle down for the Italian grand prix this afternoon ๐Ÿ˜

Have a great sunday !
