After laying a good friend to rest yesterday, it was lovely to run out this morning into a flat, calm, drizzly day. The last couple of days have been very windy so the wetted ground was covered in a thin mat of green leaves and sticks, the remnants of nature’s spring-clean.
I did my quick loop out to Wivelsfield via the Royal Oak, returning via West Wood, the Magical Path and the Common. I could feel my muscles from my Sunday exertion but otherwise it was a really pleasant run.
I even picked up my feet for a fast finish over the last 700m.
5.2 miles in 45 minutes giving 6.9mph.
