Don’t you feel great when you start the day off with a run?
My thighs hurt, I’m struggling to stand unassisted, I think I will probably be stranded in my flat for a day cos I can’t manage the stairs and yet I feel wonderful. What an invigorating sport this running is.
Today I was supposed to be running ultra slow to keep my heart rate at 145 bpm but Shakti was cycling behind me shouting “yalla yalla” so inevitably my pace picked up. Actually my average HR turned out to be 154 bpm which seems pretty low for me but I’m sure this is a result of the lovely cool weather rather than my pace.
I took my favourite 10k route around the West London portion of the Thames, looping around Chiswick, Barnes and Hammersmith Bridges. These are two of the handsome bridges on the route:
