Another lunchtime run along the Canal with Kathryn today. We agreed from the start to take it easy, as we were both still feeling the effects from our weekend exertions. Kathryn had done the grueling Tour of Pendle on Saturday and I had done the not quite so grueling (but fast!) cross country.
We did the same route as two weeks ago and had a good natter about our respective races. When we got to the turnaround point I was quite surprised at how fresh I was feeling but it soon became apparent why, as when we started heading back into town, the wind was blowing against us and so must have been pushing us along on our way out.
A couple of Kathryn's work colleagues passed us about a mile from the end of the run and were gloating (in a lighthearted typical mannish way of course) about it so we pointed out that we had both raced at the weekend. Once we got back to the 'piazza' outside work, they had stopped and were walking the last little bit so obviously we took the opportunity of sprinting past them and cheering that we had 'won'.
No running for me tomorrow as I'm off to that London... for the first time EVER!
Total distance - 5.4 miles
