parkrun here as well, 25:01. Worsley Woods: not the fastest of courses with two lots of steps up and a hill. Probably had another gear or so though. Garmin all over the place in the woods with kms ranging between 6:12 and 3:17 (I wish!).
YTD: 710.15
Alehouse...Sun-glare really slows me down. You seem to have recovered well since 'branching-out' judging by your parkrun 25 mins..
Cal... Good call to keep the parkrun local today. Is your race still happening tomorrow?
Despite the higher temperatures in the middle of the day, the early morning runs have been quite fresh. Tried some 400m and 800m efforts in my 9 miler on Thurs. and just tried to keep going on my 9 miler this morning. Not sure what I'll be ready for tomorrow...?

Hope branch inflicted injuries are getting better now alehouse, sometimes I'm happy being a shortarse.
Daughters graduation was great and I managed to find a bit of wilderness in Birmingham to run around...so all in all a cracking weekend....and my watch seems a bit more accurate now.

Race went better than expected, probably because I was sensible with the pace and just enjoyed it (so much that I ended up doing a neg split). A smidge under 80 minutes. Looking forward to ice cream and wine now.

Cal... Your 8 mile race went well! Impressed by the km splits on Strava. And a strong finish!
Got out before 6 this morning and ran 14 miles. (Av. pace was 10:35/mile; not fast but very steady.)
My second (6.5') lap was half a minute quicker than the first, Happy.
YTD: 1110' .
That's a good run from you too, especially with the neg split.
I wouldn't normally run on a Monday, especially the day after a race, but since it's the coolest it'll be for a few days, I got out for a 6 mile recovery. Sleep last night was poor (I was waking up almost every hour) so I doubt it'll be any better tonight, especially as it's likely to be over 30 degrees in my flat by then. 🥵

Alehouse: was cheering for Lancs and it should have been one.
Parkrun and an early 5 yesterday. Today is bonkersly hot.

Slept little last night (it was 32.5 in my flat at bedtime so I dozed a bit but then gave up and watched the athletics) but still got out for another 6 this morning. Nice slow pace and some strides at the end.

Just a little local Running Club social run with a couple of beers & cake to finish.

Cal... Well done on the Half distance. Might be trying something similar this week-end.
A couple of 6mile days. Not being bothered by the temperatures, morning or evening.
YTD: 1130' .
Too nice last night for me to not go out, weirdly quiet on the coast path last night so was lovely.
This time next week I'm off to London to watch Formula E at The Excel...if anyone from that end of the world is around on Friday afternoon for a little run.

How does the race work...is there a track inside the Excel? (Despite being a Londoner I've actually never gone in!)
St Albans parkrun today...1.5 mile run to the park from the station, then the parkrun, then a 1.5 mile trudge back, which seemed to be mostly uphill. Oof! Time nothing to shout about (27:49) but got age group 1st at least.
YTD: 861
Race at Excel goes through the building then out one end along the supply road then a few corners at the other end and back in...2.25 km...race is 45 mins + 1 lap.
Another club cake run last night in the woods and a coast path one today in the drizzle...nicer.

Made it a triple loop today (Popped back home between loops to check on Mrs M2 and grab more drink.)
So, made it to 20 miles. (Had wanted to do this run for ages) Av. pace was 10:19/mile which seemed comfortable (?)
YTD: 1150' .
Interesting, Hobie. I take it Formula E is electric, because the fumes would be rather unpleasant otherwise.

6 miles coast path in wind & rain today...very humid over here.

Wed- OHs birthday, out for the day.
Thursday-went to the evening racing.

So four days off. Park run yesterday and today 7.7 in a poor time which really hurt.

Cal... Well done on the relay run. (We all want to be a bit faster!!!)
After a rest day I ran Mon and Tues; a brisk 7' and a steady 8'.
YTD: 1165' .
A little fell race for me last night, gorgeous weather 3.5 mile race with 1050ft of elevation...biggest entry of 45 for this lovely race...some seriously quick yoofs (couple of Welsh Team vests out there).
Managed my quickest run/walk up the hill & a stunning run across the top of the moor & back down for cake.

I'm not feeling very well (nothing serious, just a bit grotty but who knows, could be mild covid) so no going to run until I feel a bit better.
Cal... Hope the 'grotty' feeling goes away quickly!
My two pairs of trainers arrived a week late! Never mind. Yesterday I wore the Asics Cumulus for 4 miles, then repeated the run with the Mizuno Wave-riders. Both very comfortable.

Nice little slow run & chat around local wildlife swamp last night...great to see the water buffalo up close.
