Full loop of the Serpentine in the opposite direction to yesterday.

Wednesday Apr 29, 2020 #

running 57:00 [3] 12.0 km (4:45 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom fly knit grey #2

Figure 8 through Hyde Park. Got home and double checked the distance, but Garmin was correct.

The tv stopped working last night. Checked again this morning and still not working. Started researching new ones and had made a selection. Had identified the tv and retailer and had almost completed the order. Thought I would give the old tv one last chance and it sprang to life. Clearly the threat of being replace shock it back to life.

running 41:40 [3] 8.7 km (4:47 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

A divergence from the last couple of weeks, with a slightly shorter run this morning, followed by a short exercise session. It was slightly damp, the first time for many weeks, does that mean lockdown is about to be eased?

Exercise session 15:00 [3]

Monday Apr 27, 2020 #

running 36:50 [3] 7.6 km (4:51 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

What has become the usual Monday morning loop around Green park and BP.

Exercise session 30:00 [3]

Spent a little bit longer on this. Not sure if there was an extra movement or I was a bit slower.

Sunday Apr 26, 2020 #

running 1:05:40 [3] 14.0 km (4:41 / km) +100m 4:32 / km
shoes: Nike Zoom fly knit grey #2

Through Fitzrovia to Regents Park vis a new route. Then a couple of laps of Primrose Hill before heading home.
Lately haven’t been entirely sure about the Garmin accuracy, so did some spot checks. Did 3 one k checks, Two in the park and one in the streets and each was pretty much spot on.

Friday Apr 24, 2020 #

running 37:40 [3] 8.0 km (4:43 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Starting to doubt the garmin again. Will do some checks.

Exercise session 25:00 [3]

Thursday Apr 23, 2020 #

running 51:30 [3] 11.0 km (4:41 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom fly knit grey #2

Hyde park loop. Enjoying the lack of traffic on the streets.

Wednesday Apr 22, 2020 #

running 38:30 [3] 8.1 km (4:45 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Truncated Serpentine loop. Felt like a bit of a struggle the whole way.

Exercise session 25:00 [3]

Inverted pyramid (20, 15, 10, 5, 10, 15, 20) for 6 exercise set.

The UK government has a daily press conference, which of late has served to highlight the incompetence of the government and the bungling of their response. They have now announced 5 requirements before the current lockdown restrictions will be lifted. Unfortunately, on present performance at least one of these is unachievable so we may be doomed to stay in lockdown.

Some one summed up the situation with "Tory voters next time there is an election stay at home, save lives and protect the NHS."

Tuesday Apr 21, 2020 #

running 49:00 [3] 10.2 km (4:48 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom fly knit grey #2

Regents Park. Another glorious day. So far the weather for lockdown has been really nice, with a 4 week+ stretch of fine mild weather and no opportunity to travel anywhere

Monday Apr 20, 2020 #

running 37:00 [3] 7.6 km (4:52 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

A different route pieced together from parts of regular runs to break things up a bit.

running 1:06:20 [3] 14.0 km (4:44 / km)

running 48:10 [3] 10.1 km (4:46 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom fly knit grey #2

First outing for shoes. A bit earlier so I could be back and ready for a 7:30 VTC. At least the commute wasn't long.

Wednesday Apr 15, 2020 #

shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

Full Serpentine loop. Last run for these shoes. Total of 800 km in 85 sessions at an average ace of 4:46. Need to go back to 2016 to find a simialr sort of average pace.

Pyramid session. 5-10-15-20-15-10-5, for each of rows, squat, pushup, bridge and situp

Tuesday Apr 14, 2020 #

running 49:50 [3] 10.5 km (4:45 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Hyde park loop. There are more people running in the park than there are walking along Oxford St. which is definitely not the usual way it is at 6 am

Monday Apr 13, 2020 #

running 36:20 [3] 7.6 km (4:47 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

St James park, Green park and BP. It turned colder overnight, so today was significantly cooler than yesterday. Another solid run.

Exercise session 25:00 [3]

Sunday Apr 12, 2020 #

running 1:00:00 [3] 12.8 km (4:41 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Along south bank to Tower Bridge, across the bridge around the tower and back on the north bank. Solid run. The streets are really quiet. Not a huge number of people running, but still outnumbered the cars on the road

Wednesday Apr 8, 2020 #

running 35:50 [3] 7.5 km (4:47 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

Half loop around Serpentine. Not so many people out this morning. Not sure if this was due to the different location or the slightly earlier time

running 50:00 [3] 10.5 km (4:46 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Lap of Regents Park. More people running this morning than I have seen for while. Could have been because I was a bit later, or that the weather is getting better

running 37:30 [3] 7.8 km (4:48 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

Loop around St James Park and BP.

Exercise session 25:00 [3]

Sunday Apr 5, 2020 #

running 40:40 [3] 8.5 km (4:47 / km)
shoes: Nike zoom fly 3

Another great morning for a run. A bit concerned about muttering by the Health Secretary that exercise may be removed from the list of valid reasons to leave home. Hoping if the rules do change it will only be about people doing exercise sessions in the park, and that they are not banning all outside exercise, given they have also closed all the gyms.

Saturday Apr 4, 2020 #

running 30:00 [3] 6.2 km (4:50 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

Really nice morning for a run.
The weekend will be an interesting test for the locals to see how well they go with staying home in the face of some nice weather. Sunny and 20 would usually mean crowds flocking to the parks and gardens which is greatly frowned upon at present. At the daily press briefing yesterday, the Health Secretary bluntly told people not to go out over the weekend. Now to see if they obey

Friday Apr 3, 2020 #

running 29:20 [3] 6.0 km (4:53 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly knit cream

Steady run around BP. Abductors were OK. Probably could have run yesterday, but glad to have gone this morning

Inverse pyramid, 20-15-10-5-10-15-20, of star jump, push-up, bridge arch, sit up, reverse row.

Thursday Apr 2, 2020 #

walk 1:00:00 [1] 7.3 km (8:13 / km)

Pushed the walk a bit harder this morning. As far north as Regents Park, and as far west as Marble Arch, but staying within a 2km radius of home.

Wednesday Apr 1, 2020 #

walk 1:00:00 [1] 7.0 km (8:34 / km)

Different direction this morning, back strets of Holburn.
Abductors feeling OK this morning, but beinng cautious and resisting the temptation to start back too soon.
