Underprepared to run a trail marathon but the views (once the early morning mist lifted) more than made up for it. #running #ukrunchat

That was a warm one. Glad I had some water with me as I took the running vest so I could do some mid-run shopping. A nice easy 11 miles in the sunshine. Finishes the week with 40.35 miles (64.94km) run, including a speedwork session, a reasonable go at parkrun, and a long run of 11 miles.

Another gorgeous Spring day, though a little chilly on the cycle to #parkrun. I took the opportunity to have a good run out, taking the uphill steady and the downhill hard. I was rewarded with my fastest time of the year and best age grading in two years (on this course). Stayed afterwards to chat and sort the tokens, bagging a volunteer credit.

One of those gorgeous Spring days that are warm in the sun but still fresh in the shade. Happy equinox!

Some deliberate moving around of heavy things, then enjoying the sunshine whilst getting some errands done on my rest day from running.

Back on the Winter 8 route with club this evening, though there was nothing Wintery about the weather. 14°C (57°F) and still. Delightful.

A full #tracktuesday session out on the railway path with a Moose fartlek. 5 reps of 3 minutes, 1 minute with 1 minute recovery between each rep. I was between 4:05/km and 4:10/km for the 3 minute reps (6:34/mile to 6:42/mile) and 3:54/km to 4:07/km (6:16/mile to 6:37/mile) tor the 1 minute reps.

A classic #parkrunsandwich getting my long run in today before supporting at Bath Half tomorrow. 39 minutes to #parkrun a 25:06 easy effort up and down the hill, and 37:04 back. Ended up being a little warm in the layers by the time I was home, but grateful for them on the way out. 12 miles total.

A nice recovery walk after last night's race. I had intended to do a weights workout but was too bashed up after the race and a poor night's sleep.
