Very Very Long Time

It has been a very, very long time since I have done a post, however I have been running.

Quite a bit recently.

I must admit to doing nothing over the winter and did not start running again until around march.

I am not regularly doing a 6.5km run which takes me just over 40 minutes.

Week of Doubles

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2217235
Distance: 3.5 miles
Time: 35 minutes
Comments: Really quite warm, overcast autumn day. The ground in the park is covered with yellow leaves, however the trees are still not fully bare.

I have worked a week of double shifts as Kev has been on holiday, however I am off all next week. Nearly did 2k yesterday, most I have done on my own!!

Basically work has got in the way of running that is why there has been a gap of a week. Even though I am off next week I am not sure how much I will fit in as I am off up to Nottingham to see Julia and Ant, and his new business. I am then off to the TT Brewery to see Nick B. All good fun.

Oh and the run was tiring but it felt controlled. Still no faster, but feeling good

Back to the Beginning

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2386473
Distance: 2.8 miles
Time: 28 minutes
Comments: Had a lovely weekend in Cirencester with J & A. It was great to get out the city and see some really awesome Autumnal colours.

Got back and really fancied blowing away the cob webs with a run. It was really windy so I decided to do a short old route and got blown away running in to a head wind all along Chelsea Embankment

This route was the first run I did with Marie through Battersea park

Twice around the Park

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2386442
Distance: 4.6 miles
Time: 48 minutes
Comments: Twice around the park, I was hoping for 5 miles. It certainly felt like that. However as it turns out it wasn't

Next time I will go over Chelsea Bridge and back over the Albert Bridge, I think this will be 5 miles

Really Dark

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2366792
Distance: 4 miles
Time: 40 minutes
Comments: Worked an early today, went shopping in Wandsworth Waitrose as I had the car and then went for a run. Did the figure 8 around Battersea park and it was really dark and a little bit scary. I think next time I will stick to the main paths with lights

All in all a good run though

Feeling Better

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2366792
Distance: 4 miles
Time: 40 minutes
Comments: The new style is feeling a lot more natural now. Much more circular and cycle like; and it is taking much less concentration. Weather is rubbish, grey and about 10 degrees.

I am feeling better in more ways than one. After a very long day at a christening in Sevenoaks on Sunday I am physically and psychologically feeling recovered. Binging is not good

Same Route, New Style - Feeling Better

Route: www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2217235
Distance: 3.5 miles
Time: 35 minutes
Comments: Normal route, new style and it really was feeling much better. Less concentration and more enjoyment of the running

Looking forward to getting back out soon
