Recovery is going great, in fact I'm itching to get back out running (legs feel completely fine) but trying to be sensible and wait another week at least... don't wanna rush back too soon.

Yes, I can remember you talking about your 'covid challenge'. It's a fantastic achievement, I guess that was helped by some very clear motivation lol. I could have done with something like that. If it had been a point to point race, then I would have 'needed' to keep going to the end... but for my race, you just need to complete 1 lap to get the medal. Going further depends on how much I wanted it, and at midnight, I evidently didn't want it bad enough lol

But it's ok, I'm pleased with the outcome (mostly!) and I'm already planning to try again next year and improve my result :-)
