Nice little run in the park

A Sunday off. Nice change for once. I am sure it will be rare, nevertheless I made the most of it and got up and out and ran a 4 loop course through Beacon Hill, took the first loop easy running with a friend just starting out. Loops two and three were okay but I felt tired, like I wasn't rested. The last one I picked it up trying my damnest to run hard the whole way, doing little pickups when I felt myself slowing. It was almost 20C at 10:30am so it was warm enough to make a difference. I feel really good. Next week things get serious again, with a new schedule and new focus on training. 57:39 ~ 10.44km, 5:31 per km.
