Description from Strava:
Today was just a run to stretch my legs. I should be running at parkrun tomorrow, so did not was to wear myself out. I have been in the pool a few times this week where I have a bit of a swim. That is getting easier as I build some arm strength.
I opted for the new road over to Stotfold today. That gave me a view towards the towers of Fairfield where I usually run. After crossing the bridge over the bypass I ran through Etonbury Wood and on up to the school. There were not too many kids around at that time, but it would get busy later.
The new road has been open for a while now, but it gives me extra route options. On the way back to Arlesey I diverted to run by the fields and allotments. The grass has been cut there, so it was easy going. It may get to 26C today, but it is cooler in the morning. I was still warm when I got home.
The pace was not too bad. My hip tendon and back are feeling fine now so I can push a little harder. Strava reckons I could do 5km in well under 27 minutes. I managed that at parkrun a few weeks ago, but have been slower for the last weeks as I was pacing. I will give it a go for a better time tomorrow. I may have another swim today today too.
I do not have any other running events planned, but I am happy just to work on my fitness over the summer. I do have some music events lined up though and need to get in shape for those.
Run free and have fun.
