Week 8 Run 2

[Brian-P6]

It almost felt like a chore this morning to get everything arranged and get out of the house for half 10 but kept going anyway (of course). Maybe it was the interrupted sleep last night with wifey pacing around at 4am lost on the landing that did it but I'd have thought I'd have gotten used to that by now.

Brrrr it was chilly. Accuweather said it was 7deg with a real-feel of 1deg Yikes! so put my hat on. Soon warmed up after a few mins into the run.

Pushed it slightly too hard I think on the first 4K, but then I've now stopped looking at my watch so much, but it was good non the less. The last K up the last damn hill was really tough as a result, and there's the cheerful Laura encouraging me to give it one last push to the end, not a chance Laura sorry haha. Even turning the corner at the top and getting a slow decent could do very little to pick up the pace.

All said, I did do a new PB on 5K - I think I can say that now I've done my second. 26:26.

Now to flake ............. and try not to think of a finishing beer, that has to wait until the weekend!

Well done for getting out there, you have done better than us, ive just sat on the couch setting up the garmin and the daylight is passing

I did the same when I got my Garmin, new tech is a funny thing. For the first day they create a rift in time where all you remember doing is playing with your tech ... but surely it couldn’t have been all day could it? Haha
