Out for a little trot

Its been a bit of a week but we got through.

I bought a new phone yesterday and today a laptop,that's a long story that's got nothing to do with running,

We didn't get out very early,I spent half the morning playing with the new phone and downloading all the important apps like NRC and Strava, and a shortcut to here.

Its so warm, degrees so we decided a trip to the river would be perfect,Willow decided a walk would do,

walk across the bridge,take a few photos. Some of my thumb because the viewfinder is in a slightly different place.

Quick kiss and I'm off, gently does it,aiming for 30 minutes

Lots of people out,one guy who'd abandoned his top seems to be running as fast as he can,passed me going the other way and again just after I turned after 15 minutes, again later, he's a sight to behold,young, tanned,glistening muscles,arms and legs pumping,totally focused I think he must have been going 2k then turn.

I plod on, turn at 15 minutes,run back,nothing very exciting but 3k in under 30 minutes and I feel great,

Have a good run all or rest if you need

Not sure I can upload a photo but I will try

Good run for you today Sola, nice photo, ha, I bet you would like to run like the guy you saw with the tanned glistening muscles and without a top, perhaps next year you'll be able to run at his pace. 😊 🏃🏾.

Ill never run at his pace Al, he looked like he was flat out and it I was to guess an age I'd say about 30

Indeed Sola, I am always being laped at parkrun by those gazelles who run a sub 20 minutes 5K

well done on your 3 k run and new toys as well. Hope you manage the mobile and laptop better than me, I’m not very electrical minded. Your photo was good and clear. We have had the dismal rainy mild weather here today . Have a good weekend.

Nice run Sola and a nice photo too, but I was a bit disappointed - I thought it was going to be of something other than the scenery! 😂

You seem to have got a handle on that new phone already 🙂 and the run was a success too - good time and a fit 30 something running back and forth just for you! Sounds like a win win situation to me
