Janathon - day 2


I'd love to pretend the photo is blurred as we were just too fast but it would be a total lie.  Managed to get out of bed and pick Becca up to get to parkrun, an achievement in itself! The run, however, didn't go so well.

For around the last 6 months we have changed our "home" parkrun. Many reasons that I don't really want to go into, but a major part in the decision was that our new run, Hockley Woods, is impossible to have a lazy run at.  Where we went before, was very flat and boring and apart from the occasional bad weather along the sea wall, was easy enough to just chat/plod around. 

Today was our slowest ever on this course, nearly 36 minutes!   A good judge of our runs is how much we get to chat ... Nowhere near as much gossip as usual today! 

But still ... About 3 miles (it always measures short on Garmin) of mud and woods and hills and a bit less chat than usual ...  Better than it would've been if I'd stayed in bed!

And then we have a crazy off road run in a few weeks so I had to buy new shoes ...
