Running Update
After a couple of really tough runs recently (to the woman in the blue tshirt who bellowed words of encouragement when I was about to give up on Sunday - thank you, I don’t think I would have made it back without you), I had a good run last night with my boyfriend.
It must be really boring for him, a few times I caught him walking for a bit, probably bored after spending far too long jogging at an almost power-walk pace, but I’m so grateful to him for coming with me, protecting me from the (often) weird folk that hang around canal paths at night and for spurring me on when I was ready to give up.
I was really hoping the run would have topped the 6km mark (there’s a lot to be said for planning your route BEFORE you set off), but mapmyrun says it’s 5.75km, which ain’t bad - 0.75km further than my furthest previous run!
Next time, I’m going to get over the 6km mark!
