My body is like a car engine

[Now-runner_NeedsAttn]

Cars run better when the air is damp (the air is denser so more of it gets in and you get a bigger bang) and on high octane fuel. Today's run was a little damp and I was fuelled by the million-calories-per-slice chocolate cake I'd eaten beforehand with the net result that W6R2 was a doddle The effect of the cake is most noticeable in the first, uphill km which was 45 seconds quicker than the "plodding pace" I usually try to run at, and though I managed to slow down I was still quicker than normal and not struggling in the least at the end of the runs.

W6R3 may prove to be more of a challenge...

Good run. I want some of that cake!

Enjoy closing out week 6

Wow, being fuelled by a big chocolate cake🎂, that's a change from most people who would be "bloated" after eating just a slice, I certainly could not go out and run🏃 week 6 run 2 after eating a million calories slice of cake,🎂 perhaps 2 hours later hut not 2 minutes after finishing it😉

Ah no, only a slice and it was about an hour before. I did once eat a whole Victoria Sponge in an afternoon. I didn't feel very well afterwards.

I read somewhere that Pork Scratchings are an excellent diet for athletes. It was on the Internet so it must be true! Here it is: cyclingweekly.com/news/late...

Nice to see you back!

Plenty of watter on my run today and it super charged me 😊 relatively 🙃
