Turkey and Training

Just competed W8 R1. Was a bit nervous after two days of (moderate) indulging however it was a beautiful sunny winter morning and I felt good. Perhaps too good as I went off a bit fast but managed the full 28 minutes. 🏃‍♂️ Map my run measured the time at 29.42 which is odd, even if I was a few seconds after in pressing pause after Laura told me I was finished. Distance was 4.43. Any one else notice the apps measuring differently? Anyway feel pretty chilled now except the left hip is aching, which is never has before 🤕. Oh well more eating and drinking should sort it!

Well done Markeaton! I just did my W7R2 and expected to be weighed down with wobbling the whole run but it wasn’t too bad 😊. Hope the hip feels better.
