Long run from Therfield Heath. Felt much better than a couple of weeks ago - more relaxed and felt stronger at the end. Not as many hills as would have been ideal, but worked with what I had. Had more left at the end.
Straight into McDonald’s drive through for a Big Mac after - unable to resist
Back at my favourite Parkrun, Wimpole Estate. A nice off road one lapper between Royston and Cambridge.
Set off fairly fast but with one chap already pulling out a small gap. Got overtaken into 3rd but maintained contact and managed to muster a little sprint finish, and also dragged me along to a 15 second course PB.
Pacey run on the Digley loop. Didn’t feel good and died on my arse on the climb up from the reservoir. Ben was full of beans and smashing all the climbs which didn’t help.
Shivering at the end - must be fighting something...will take care.
