steevc just finished a 10.05km run, that lasted for 64 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 755.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
Last night we took the train over to Cambridge for a comedy gig by Dave Gorman. Whilst we were waiting at Hitchin station someone pointed out that there was a lot of smoke coming from somewhere up the line.
A few minutes after boarding the train we passed the source. It is a scrapyard that was burning well.
The rest of the journey was uneventful. Before the gig we got something to eat at vegan restaurant Stem and Glory. My pumpkin ravioli was nice, but other half had some issues with her veg bowl. The mushrooms were not crispy as described. They did offer to swap it, but she carried on/
They do nice desserts too.
The venue was Cambridge Junction that is near the station. I have seen some bands there and the main room is not exactly pretty, but it is adequate for comedy. It was a little warm in there and the chairs were not that comfortable. Dave was doing what will be a new series of his show Modern Life is Goodish. He did two episodes for us that they are still refining before the recording. He makes great use of Powerpoint to look into issues around the lives we lead and milks lots of humour from them. You can find some shows on Youtube. The second one used material from his last tour which we went to, but he added new stuff. I will not spoil it by revealing any details, as he requests. The train home was fine, but it was a fairly late night for us.
I was up this morning for a run and opted to head across the fields to Henlow Camp. The fields by the path to the bridge over the railway have been cleared for building, so it looks very different now. The path was quite overgrown and I had to dodge the nettles. The field beyond the old mill is a lovely shade of purple, but I am not sure what the crop is. There is a place near here that grows lavender, but it was not that.
I was finding it hard work today, but then I was still feeling the effects of parkrun. I ran back along the roads. The cows seemed to be staring at me as I passed.
I diverted to run most of the parkrun course in reverse where I was hissed at by a goose that had a gosling nearby. Then it was just a matter of getting home for nearly exactly 10km. That felt like enough.
I have some chores to do before I head to a jam session with some friends.
Run free!
