I met Kathryn at the usual time of 12.35 today for our lunchtime canal run. A couple of minutes in, we were stopped by a lady on Canal Street asking us for directions to somewhere (can’t remember where now). She said ‘Sorry, I know you’re jogging but can you tell me where…’
Jogging? Jogging? We’re RUNNING dammit!!!
It was a pretty good run too and one of our fastest along the canal to date (I should say one of MY fastest, as Kathryn can go much quicker on her own) although, as usual, I started to struggle the moment we turned round at Old Trafford and started running back and just had to leave Kathryn to do all the talking from there onwards whilst I huffed and puffed my way back to the office.
The high point of the run, for me, was seeing a Kingfisher under a bridge on the canal. I've never seen one before so was very excited, although nobody else seemed to share my enthusiasm.
Total distance – 5.5 miles
