Description from Strava:
I felt very tired yesterday. It may have been a combination of a late night on Saturday and the warm temperatures. It has cooled down a little now and I slept better last night. That does not mean I leapt out of bed ready for a run, but I did drag myself out.

It was quite nice out there. We had some strong winds on Sunday, but all was calm. I did my usual Fairfield loop and there were not too many people around. There will always be some dog walkers and kids going to school. There is a couple I often see out for a morning walk. Perhaps that is their exercise routine.

I just kept plodding on. This was not a particularly quick run for me, but I am happy that I can keep running despite my hip niggle. I am seeing the physio again this week. It was not too painful on the run. I am taking his advice to massage it and doing some stretches before and after running. I have largely neglected stretching on my workouts previously, so maybe that contributed to the current issue.

I warmed up a lot over this run, but it was quite enjoyable really.

I have taken to listening to some political podcasts in these 'interesting times'. One of those is Pod Save the UK which is fun as well as informative.

Have a great week and run free.
