Early run with Rob around Dam Flask. Very sore legs from session yesterday, just sore by the end so all worthwhile. Good chatty pace, more runners than cars which is a first. The good people of Loxley obviously on holiday and mad for some early running.
Session with Hallamshire, was psyched for hills but was reps around Pentagon. Probably what I needed, good to have some of the speedy youth back from Uni to chase. Session 2 laps, 1 lap, 2 laps , 1 lap, 2 laps. Proper lactic on last rep, forgot what that felt like.
legs much better, damp and misty , but pretty warm. Decent trot into work Very dark in the parks, should have asked for a head torch for Christmas, kept stepping in sneaky puddles.

Social run with TIm, through the parks in the dark. Had already had tea and made and eaten lots of mince pies with the boys. First go at pastry baking, ooh the excitement. Legs and stomach did not enjoy this. Good catch up chat though. Also first ever visit to the Hammer and Pincers, for emergency pit stop , I'm not sure the locals will invite me back.
Run with mr Baker around Dam Flask. Very dark legs were better than I thought they would be. Hopefully darkest run of the year, only brightened by Rob's flashing Aldi lights.
