Week 8 run 3 running high

Yesterday’s run. Yes I did walk some of it but I did run 28 minutes of it (and a tiny bit more that was too nice not to run) I beat my teenager walking the same route by nearly 3 hours. Although I think they had a very long lunch stop!

It was my slowest run to date, but I suppose that would be no surprise as it was quite steep. Even more surprisingly I found the up and the level bits, easier than the down and my slowest running was the downhill bit, bazar.

I really did struggle to run for 60 seconds a few months ago!

Beautiful. I must visit it some day. I do hill-walking not hill-running though!
