After several days of general loafing and skipping Friday’s run because my watch said so, I did an 8K walk/run today, with lots of running.
Surprisingly, despite the temperature feeling like 30C, it didn’t feel overly oppressive, thanks to a combination of a decent breeze and plenty of shade (the good kind of shade). The river trail was not very busy, perhaps because of my late afternoon start, but this also meant no dogs, which also means no dogs off leash. Woo.
Other than that, it was fine. I ran probably 3/4 of the way back and felt good. I had a sort of pleasant loping pace going.
