Ran another 5k yesterday and it felt so good to be back at 5k again.
I also tried a new /old route that I hadn’t run for at least 2 years, and it felt like a great little adventure! The route was slow going as there were many farmyard tractor tracks and undulating hills that slowed me down, but it was great that this route is open for running again!
It’s un-runnable during the mud season, and one summer seasons was lost when the farmer plowed the field too close to the hedges, destroying the public footpath alongside.
So it was really nice to reconnect with this route, which last I used to train up to 10k. I might chose this route for my 10k plans again.
On top of this adventurous run, my 5k medal arrived, which I achieved as part of my virtual graduation 5k race.
So I’m pretty happy all around!
