steevc just finished a 6.93km run, that lasted for 42 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 511.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
I know I have some readers outside the UK on Hive who may not know that our PM called a general election for July 4th. He did it outside 10 Downing Street in the pouring rain, so he got soaked. It has rained a lot this week. From some buckets in our garden it looks like about 5cm in a few days.
I was at our pub music session last night with a good crowd of others. It was good fun as usual. There is an open mic up the road tonight, so I may go to that too.
I would have run yesterday if it had not been raining. It was dry today, so off I went. There were not too many puddles, but I did find the big one in the photo and it was a little slippery around the edge. There were not too many people around, but I did see that some travellers have camped by Fairfield. It was just one caravan and a few cars plus a dog tied to a kennel. No doubt some people are keeping an eye on them as they can be seen as troublesome.
My run was uneventful otherwise. It was hard at the start, but I tried to push harder as I warmed up.
I saw one of the ladies from parkrun on the way back. I will miss it on Saturday, but will try to fit in some running when I can.
To finish I will say that this is a big year for elections around the world. I think we should all vote if we can. That may mean registering or having particular ID, so check what you need. Politics can seem messed up, but we should support those who have good intentions rather than those who just want to disrupt for the benefit of a few.
Run free and stay free.
