10 AM

Running 1:24:15 [3] 11.0 mi (7:40 / mi)
slept:6.7 shoes: Asics GT2170 Orange

The usual course - with a detour into Waitrose and coming back past Tesco which possibly makes it slightly longer. Anyway, struggled at first with groin but it eased out and managed today it easily enough. I love this course, especially once out of Newmarket, in particular the descent down Duchess Drive.

8 AM

Running warm up/down 34:30 [2] 3.9 mi (8:51 / mi)
slept:6.2 shoes: Asics GT1000

Woke a bit later than expected so went to Bedford instead. Not a day for a tarmac Parkrun with lots of black ice... Felt tired and leg stiff. Most of running before the run (late start at 9.20).

9 AM

Running race 18:17 [5] 5.0 km (3:39 / km)
shoes: Brooks ST 5 Racers

Bedford Parkrun - 1st but not entirely satisfied with the run/time. Was doubtful last night due to stiffness in muscles. The cold didn't help and I never felt fully relaxed and had to slow down in a number of places due to black ice. Still - that's 4 wins on the trot. Sure to be broken next Saturday at Milton.

From the Thistle around the centre, then west, picked up seafront and back. Nice once on the front. Count the homeless person in doorway around the centre.
