I didn’t find time to run last weekend and even though it was only ten days since my run with Daren, I still didn’t feel on form this morning.
However, it was warm enough for me to sit outside with my quadspresso and it seemed a shame not to get out and complete at least a short functional run. I ran out towards Wivelsfield on the normal short route, but then turned right into West Wood rather than putting the recent additional loop on.
As I ran past Ditchling Common Industrial Estate so my foot caught a root and I came down heavily on my hands… not particularly painful, but it did wake me up a bit!
Then it was back down the Magical Path before again taking the more direct path home.
No loops meant that I completed only 5.7 miles in 55 minutes (route shown here on Strava), an average of 6.2 mph.
