Rediscovered my snail

Went too fast on Saturday, and on Tuesday I couldn’t seem to run any slower. Got out early today and had a wonderfully comfortable couple of miles. It was getting warm by the time I got to the bottom of the trail... these cows had the right idea I think.

Happy running everyone.

Spring has sprung and it's gorgeous. Lovely day. Glad you found your rhythm for this one.

3 mile recovery run next... so parkrun again 😀.

It is really beautiful out there and maybe, just maybe, I’m becoming a morning runner... I may not stick to it when I can run late nights again though.

Happy running.

So did you roll up the Lycra and go for a paddle ? Do tell !

Lycra?

No paddle... but I really could have. Had to get home for some breakfast.

Think I just worked out how I managed to slow down... 1460 feet of elevation gain! Maybe I do love a hill after all.

Hills are definitely good for slowing down! 😂

I’m getting better... they used to stop me for a second while I turned around and ran away 😂

I think if I’d gone out much later I’d have been in there with them.
