Sweaty start to Sunday

I went out for a run down by the river this morning.

The whole way I was wondering why it was sooooo hard. I got to the picnic area at the end and found I ran 7:41/km rather than 8:13/km! No wonder it was hard!!

I had a great location for my stretching and now really need a shower (though I look like I just had one)!!

Well run. You are clearly getting fitter if the speed is creeping up on you like that!

It may partly be to morning being slightly cooler than the evening. I also didn't have anyone to gossip with!

While I'm sure I'm getting fitter I'm not sure it makes that big a difference since Wednesday!

The temperature definitely will. As will pacing solo.
