steevc just finished a 7.13km run, that lasted for 41 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 534.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
With a bank holiday on Monday the week is all out of phase. I was in the office yesterday and might have gone today, but there is a train strike. With the kids off school I can run to Stotfold without hitting crowds.
It was another 'wet air' morning and it has turned cooler after the hot weekend. I plodded up the hill to the war memorial as my legs got working. By the time I got down to Stotfold Road I was warmed up and decided to do some fartlek sprints. These get my heart working harder.
I kept doing the sprints on and off to Stotfold. People were queuing at the medical centre there. I went just past them to get to 3km before turning back. I did not stop at the outdoor gym this time.
It was really quiet out there generally. As I passed the school a guy went past on a recumbent bike. I missed getting a photo of that, but took one of the Pendleton sports centre, named after a local Olympian.
I took the long way around Arlesey to get back and make up some distance. My hip was still making itself known, but it is not really painful. I may do less long runs for now, but keep training to maintain my fitness.
I want to do parkrun on Saturday, but will volunteer at least once in June. I hope some of the family will come along.
Run free!
