A Shot In The Dark

[MontyMooDog]

Thought I'd try something different and go for a short run in the dark around the local university campus. Found it was still 19C and very humid still at 21:00 and not a breath of air. Could not park where I wanted to so did my warm up walk for 5 mins and then ran to the campus. Wasn't sure where I was as there has been a lot of building work going on since I was there last a few years ago. In the end ran around in a loop and thought I was about 5 minutes walk back to the car so cut run short at only 3K. Misjudged the walk back as it was 12 minutes so all in all not my best run. But have scouted the area out and have something to work on for next time🏃😂👍

3.02K / 20:41min / 6'51"pace

VO2Max reached 40 for the first time...

😂 so it was humid, hot and dark and you couldn’t park where you wanted, then got lost!

But you still remained positive and had a good run for 20 minutes!

I applaud you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

At least I didn't sprain my ankle lol😂😂🏃

At least you made it back safely 👍

[Hareshaw-Granny Graduate]

Well that was certainly different. Variety being the spice of life. 👍👍

My VO2Max is stubbornly sitting at 39. 😠

There’s a good app called footpath you can draw out your run before you go so you know the distance.

& hopefully you don’t get lost 😅

Very handy!

That Footpath app is great! Thank you! Have been looking for something to work out how to plan a route as distances starts to increase (slightly!) - I don't like turning round and running back down same path.

Thanks. I'll give it a go if it's on Android 👍
