W7 R1 done

Just back from the above run.

I think I may have set off a little fast ( by my low standards anyway 🤣 ) for the first 5 mins, so had to slow down for the next 5 mins.

After that though I found a fairly nice rhythm and managed to complete the run. Even managed to comply with Michaels request to up the pace a bit for the last minute

Lots of tree debris from Ciara around today, unsurprisingly. Be careful if you’re running.

Well done on your run! It is quite the art form to keep it slow at the start, as enthusiasm can get the better of you! Now I have been running a while, I really can understand the benefit of a slow start - gets those muscles warmed up and the oxygen flowing so you have enough energy to finish happy!

Keep up the good work. đź‘Ť
