Description from Strava:
We enjoyed the Olympics last night. Team GB were not getting the golds, but they got a load more medals and broke some records. It is the last day of the games today. I think Paris did a great job.
Meanwhile in the UK there have been some anti-immigrant riots stirred up by nasty people, including Elon Musk. I just deleted my Twtr account, but then I thought it would go downhill as soon as he took over.
I was feeling quite tired yesterday. Doing parkrun takes it out of me. It looks like the times got adjusted a little, but then I suspected mine was wrong as it did not match what my watch recorded. It is no big deal and I suspect they just had not lines up the times with the finishing places as those are recorded separately.
Today I just wanted to get out there without worrying about speed. I did the run up to Langford as that is a nice route. It is fairly flat and away from the road on the way out. It was nice out there, but it will be warming up.
I kept running all the way, but it was hard work at times.
I took photos of some of the local community libraries that people have set up. You are free to donate books and take whatever you fancy. I love schemes that work totally independently of any financial motive. It shows the good in people. We have also seen that in those who cleared up after the riots and turned out to show that their communities do not tolerate racism. It is such an illogical tendency as we have no choice what bodies we are born in and that will not determine what kind of people we turn into.
Of course there is work to do in the garden today and I need to get out when it is not too hot. I did just have an online meeting with my band about our gig that is just two weeks away! Looking forward to that.
Run free!
