A run of existential dread at the return to work tomorrow. This last month of being on furlough has been extremely lit. Nothing lasts forever I suppose :'(

Run 22:30 [3] 4.8 km (4:41 / km)
shoes: Adizero RC 2
Was honestly not especially keen, as I wasn't convinced I was going to manage it. Week and a bit of not training well had got into my head, and I had fresh memories of not being as fast as I wanted to be.
Anyways, when it came down to it, I was actually feeling pretty good.
Liam shot off like a bat out of hell with a 3'52 so was trying to slow him down for the next while.
We came through 2.5km bang on target of 3'59 average, but the poor boy went pop and that was that. He'll get it sometime soon though I'm sure

Another few days of falling off the wagon, but the left calf was still not good, so ultimately it was probably the right idea to do nothing.
Up the hill to Napier uni, down the hill and back along the canal. Would it really be anything else?

Just chilling, but foot hurting a bit after halfway, though no option to cut it short. Glad to have done it though.

On the canal, good vibes slightly spoiled by some jakeys on Just Eat bikes

Bumped into Tam for an extended chat early on, but despite his best persuasive efforts I just went for a 5km loop.
Will do the intervals tomorrow morning instead

Never mind though, onwards and upwards, and a benchmark to beat in 4 weeks time.
Meadows was quite busy, including a sighting of the premier EUOC power couple

Paced much better than last time, feeling reasonable. Blister on left heel which was giving me a bit of grief but not too bad.

Felt a very comfortable pace, and a highly enjoyable run once I'd gotten out

Hoaching in Morningside, so spent most of my time in the road. Seems like corona is no more

Spotted in the distance Rona and Phil out for a jog, only to get closer and realise it was their Lidl own brand doppelgängers

Did not live up to the kudos of Colm for this one, but he was certainly being overly generous last time anyway. Much appreciated though xx
Actually 400m this week, although entirely on grass rather than hard packed dirt. Feeling much better physically, but going a tad slower somehow? Maybe the grass, maybe the jog recovery rather than walk, maybe just tired.
Got out and did something which is the main thing. Between 1'13 - 1'16 for all the reps.
