Morning all - Nice recovery run with Rico

Still pampering my hamstring. I had a nice run out with Rico keeping me slow by checking out the wildlife, brambles, apples etc. 7.11k at an average pace of 7.42 at 7.24 this morning. I like 7s. Only one trauma today a dead squirrel in the path that I spotted first and walked Rico by it. Last thing I needed would be a struggle to remove a dead squirrel from his jaws ;-)

Hope you all have great runs I feel brilliant with no injuries.

Keep stretching!
