Good long run today!

Ran 8 km/5 miles this morning and all before 8AM! I wanted to run 10K today but my left knee was complaining a bit so I thought it would be safer just to cap it at 8 km. Maybe next time. That's Week 1 of HM training done! πŸ˜€

Congratulations on your 8K run today at around 7 am, nice, easy and early for you RC41, I hope you enjoyed your run today, I am sure you did, next time 10K.

You don't do those virtual or (not) parkruns, but tomorrow is a interesting day for me in 3 ways

1:-It will be my first parkruniversary.

2:-I have already ran 17 official Parkruns

3 :-Tomorrow will be my 17th virtual parkrun and my 4th not parkrun. 😊 πŸƒπŸΎ

Wow, a big day for you then! Happy Parkruniversary!

I forgot to tell you that I went on a 13 mile bike ride on Thursday with a friend of mine and it was so much fun! I was exhausted by the end of it though hahaha! We may cycle to Bristol next week because that's roughly 13 miles too! πŸ˜€

Fabulous! Especially well done on stopping when you felt your knee - that's really sensible. Hope it feels OK now, keep listening to it πŸ€žπŸ™‚

Well done on your 8km - that's still a really good distance and definitely good idea to listen to your body πŸ˜€ getting out nice and early a good plan to avoid the heat of the sun πŸ‘
