Description from Strava:
Happy Father's Day to those who celebrate. I know the date can vary around the world, but it is the third Sunday in June in the UK. One of my kids sent me some Tony's chocolate that I am enjoying with my coffee. I need the energy.
It has been an active weekend. On Friday night I played drums at our open mic at the local pub. That was our first one in a while and it was great fun. Yesterday I was helping at parkrun. I thought I would just be standing out on the course, by I ended up tailwalking. The latest update on the pool is that we decided to get a new one so off we went to Costco. It was a very heavy box that we just about got into the car. It is being filled right now and that will take a while. Later today I have a gig with . I will report on that on Hive.
It is due to be hot today and was already warm enough when I set off on my run. I was aiming for another easy one, but it turned out to be more zone 3 than 2. That is okay as it was still a fairly relaxed pace for me. I will be pacing at parkrun in a couple of weeks so I need to know what time to aim for. It has to be something I can do comfortably.
The run was nice, but I was looking for any available shade to cool me a little. I saw a couple of guys running with their shirts off, but I tend to keep mine on. Nobody needs to see my pale torso.
On the road from Fairfield to Stotfold the hedgerow was cleared a while back to make a cycle path, but that has still not been done. Meanwhile the wild flowers are flourishing there.
I took the long way around to stretch out the distance and it was enough today in these conditions. Wildlife sightings included a rabbit and many butterflies.
Podcast listening included Richard Herring talking to Tim Minchin as well as some science and music shows.
I hope it is good where you are. Run free if you can.
