This run helped steevc burn 782.0 calories. --- **Description from Strava:** Yesterday I met up with a few Hive folk in Bedford. @alessandrawhite was there for a clarinet course and so we coordinated to get a few others there. We had @nicklewis, @chris-uk, @shanibeer and @gillianpearce join us as we met up at the [Olive Tree](https://olivetreerestaurants.co.uk/) Turkish restaurant by the River Great Ouse. I had met everyone except Chris before and he had made the longest journey from Norwich by train via London. The food was great. I had moussaka that was nice. ![Lunch](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steevc/23wWyPUyRZWnmcZ9xUqaxxHVRjn77T9DGGQw6nvU7eik8AWLucpt4QxUKKidrqtCPWwTp.png) Alessandra and I distributed some Hive merchandise. I had some that arrived too late for a previous event. After lunch I took them on a tour around the areas by the river. The water has been really high recently and the weir where there is a canoe slalom was in full flow. I did not take many photos, but others did so check out their posts that I will share. ![Drinks at The Swan](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steevc/23wMaerSvWBcWr5JNWoTMg3stZdQhAZ3aDqfinH53Hb7jRawHcybcV52DbeyTMkrAJN97.png) We ended at the [Swan Hotel](https://bedfordswanhotel.co.uk/) for drinks and chatted a while longer before people had to make their way home. It is always nice to get together with such smart people. Some of us have been through a lot on Hive, but we are still there as we believe it can do so much good. With my morning run I ended up with 19,000 steps for Saturday, but I still wanted to get out today. I did a different run for some variety. Early on a spotted a cycle helmet in the gutter that looked a bit like a skull. I wonder who lost that. I also met two ladies I know who are both called Linda and they were both walking dogs. I headed over to Henlow and on to Clifton. This route has some ups and downs. It has got slightly warmer so there was no risk of ice. The mud will take a while to dry out. I saw a few other runners, some more than once. I was not going for speed and I took a couple of walking breaks. It felt pretty good and I picked up the pace a bit on the way back. As usual there are Sunday chores to do, but I will be taking it fairly easy. Enjoy your Sunday and run free. --- If you would like to check out this activity on strava you can see it here: https://www.strava.com/activities/17480405634 **About the Athlete:** *Older guy trying to keep fit, but still hope to go quicker.*
