Description from Strava:
The parkrun was cancelled again due to flooding and I did not run yesterday, but I have done a lot of walking this week. I wanted to do a long run today and aimed for about 11km. It ended up a bit longer.
I did a variation on my usual loop around the villages. It was a lovely bright, but cold, morning. There was some frost on cars, but the paths were fine. I jogged up the hill to Fairfield. There I have the low sun flashing through the trees to one side, which can be a little annoying.Maybe I need my sunglasses.
There were a lot of other runners out there. Although I run the same routes I see lots of different people rather than the same ones. That indicates there are a lot of runners about. Some will be training for events, but I just run all year. I do have a 10km coming up next month, so I want to be ready for that.
I went through what I call the 'new estate' in Stotfold, but it has been there about 15 years now. They have a couple of play areas for the kids. We recently got a new one near us, but my kids are far too old for that. I did not see the ducks that normally hang around by the stream.
I went around the north side of Stotfold and then towards Astwick where I have to run on the road as there is no path. It is a really quiet road though. It takes me to the track that runs straight across the fields towards Etonbury school. On Friday I took the new shortcut over the bridge on the bypass that comes out by the school when I was going for a haircut, but I took the long was around today.
Back in Arlesey I took the direct route as I had had enough. My hit tendon was sore and I need to look at exercises for that. I felt fine one I had got home and had breakfast plus a shower. I do have chores to do today.
Enjoy your day and run free!
