The weekend's activities caught up with me today and I felt like crap all day. A little part of me kept hoping an e-mail would pop up from Kathryn saying the washing machine repair man was coming round and she couldn't run at lunch today (no that's not completely random, she does have a broken washing machine) but as it got to 12.20 I knew that wasn't going to happen. I'm REALLY glad I didn't get that e-mail though as we had a good, albeit hard work, run. The run was around half a mile shorter than our usual route but it felt much longer due to my pathetic tiredness.
As usual, Kathryn kept me going at a decent pace where, if I had been on my own, I would have slowed down. Love these lunchtime runs!
A couple of miles from the office the rain came down and we were like drowned rats by the time we got back.
Kathryn, if you're reading this, we got a couple of Strava course records today (for the benefit of everyone else, we were chatting about Strava on our run and Kathryn asked whether our outings covered any segments). We got a record on a 1.2 mile segment named 'lonely bridge to Rain Bar' and are first out of 18 ladies. The other record was on a 2.2 mile segment 'Bridgewater Canal long - going east' but not as impressive as we're first out of only five ladies on this one.
Josie, stay out of Manchester and leave our records alone!
Total distance - 4.9 miles
