Did a local early morning run the other morning with my two regular running buddies. Great to get this done before everyone sets off on their various hols. We did a shortened version of our usual 7k run. We ran down and up Allison Road (a good hill), down into Eastwood Farm, along by the river, back up through Eastwood Farm, through the cut-through into the top fields behind Broomhill Junior school, down into Victory Park, exiting the park by the cemetry, through St Lukes Church and home.
Apart from nervously running past a gang of doberman dogs all went well. No shin-splint or leg pain. I finally feel like I have recovered from my injury and have a spring in my step when running. Now looking at booking some more events, possibly the Wye Valley half marathon in September and Ashton Court 10k in November.
Planning to do lots of running on holiday. Well I'm saying this now. I may well get there and just think blow this, it's far too hot.
Happy holidays everyone!

- I'm not a serious runner, and I'm certainly not that competitive. I'm someone who has two children, reached her 40's and simply wants to stay fit and feel good. I am writing this blog to share my thoughts, experiences and hopefully inspire others to take up running and explore green spaces in a city and further afield. I work as a freelance journalist and a part-time school librarian, and write this blog purely for love. Please feel free to comment and I'll do my best to reply and continue to write an entertaining blog.
