Description from Strava:
I was out last night celebrating the birthday of @todayslight (fellow Hiver). Some pics here. We were back at the White Horse in Arlesey, which is where I started the music sessions some years ago. I had a beer and a couple of whiskies. I wanted to be able to run this morning.
It is still relatively warm and just right for running. I started, as usual, by running up to Fairfield. The road through Arlesey was quiet as the roadworks mean people cannot get through.
It was feeling like hard work today, but I think parkrun takes a lot out of me. I just need to fit in runs where I can. From Fairfield I headed out the other side and onto the Greenway around Standalone Farm. They are having some construction work in the car park at the entrance.
From there it is an uphill slog through Letchworth. There are so many interesting houses there such as this pink one that looks very solid.
I followed some of the Standalone 10k course out through Norton, but went back onto the Greenway at Radwell Meadows. I prefer to keep away from roads when I can. I had to get past a couple of horses there. Plenty of people out walking and a few runners.
I was feeling like I had had enough, but still had to get home. I just had to keep going. I was ready for my breakfast when I got back.
I was reading about this race in Northern Ireland where 131 men ran 5k in under 15 minutes. I would have been lapped by everyone running there. I doubt I will ever be that quick, but I still hope for improvements.
Run free!
