Week 7 run 2

First outing with my new gel insoles. I couldn't say why exactly but definitely more comfortable.

Light rain, so I was a little bit warm in my jacket.

I did the same route as last time, although I cannot be sure that I turned around at exactly the same place on the muddy track. But as I suspected my pedometer wasn't quite right last time. Having reset it I clocked up 4.58k, not the 5k from last time. So closer to the distance on OS Maps. Never mind, at least I did the 25 minutes.

I don't feel fast but I think I have the settings right now.
