Road run (Thames Path) 2:42:00 [2] 12.5 mi (12:58 / mi)
ahr:110 rhr:56 shoes: saucony swerve

Joined Lu and Catherine at Westminster Bridge for the final leg of her Long Run Home. Battled first the crowds and then the heat. The 35 mins spent not moving were us trying to find shops that would sell coke, lucozade, water, energy snacks, anything, to get over the line. Had discomfort in most joints and especially left shoulder throughout, but it might have been a psychological reaction to the two nightmare train journeys I had to undergo getting to London and back. Or the staggering heat, which became a serious issue after Tower Bridge. So proud to be a part of Lu's well-chosen and successful challenge. One to remember for ever.

Trail run (Thames Path) 2:55:00 [2] 13.4 mi (13:04 / mi)
ahr:109 slept:9.0

Inset Day. But what's going on with the weather? Had brought enough water for a heatwave and it was almost untouched. Didn't mind the drizzle in the event but the long wet grass was unwelcome. Drove back up the A34, parked the far side of the bridge in (a delightful) Wallingford, then got a bus to Abingdon in the rain. Met Lu at that bridge, where she was already 9 miles in, then ran or walked through Culham, Wittenham, Burcot and Shillingford. Although all we saw was fields, cows and the eternal river. Ice cream and coffee then last 2k back to car to get changed for long drive home. No back problems at all running, but it was a nice comfortable pace.

Met Lu in North Meadow, Cricklade, 12 miles into her Long Run Home, and accompanied her to Castle Eaton at mile 17. Delightful jog through lush meadows, although the long grass a nuisance in places. Warm and humid but nice breeze.

Trail run (Thames Path) 41:00 [3] 3.75 mi (10:56 / mi)
ahr:126

My favourite time of day. Joined Lu again at Lechlade for the home leg (miles 23-7) of her first (of 7!) marathons. More grassy meadows, gates, bridges, and two locks, to Kelmscott. The river already a fairly substantial entity by this point. It was good a) not to be carrying a rucksack, b) to have comparatively fresh legs, and c) to be part of Lu's big adventure.

ahr:150 max:173 rhr:55 weight:72kg shoes: saucony swerve

Midsummer parkrun. Beautiful morning. What joy. Easy warm up, was focussed on posture rather than effort. Shoulder was tightening by the end but I'd saved a bit for last lap and I don't think I was hampered. Lower back was encouraging but there is ever such a long way to go to rehab. Started comfortable, relaxed on second lap and went for it on third. Third mile split same as first so time was a bit quicker than usual. 'New record' according to Garmin.

Jan's birthday ride. Dodging showers. Woodmancote, Rowlands Castle, Chalton, SDW (Buriton), Idsworth, Compton (coffee/cake), Funtington, West Stoke, Lavant, Walderton, home. Bit quicker than normal, trying to stay in front of the woman on the Trek Domane. Left shoulder may be a cycling problem?

Decided to ignore tight feeling in left shoulder and see what happened. It was a handicap and I was a bit laboured. But it was also good to be doing parkrun again. Very sore after, but soon settled down. I've still got absolutely no idea what the problem is. High avg heart rate as well.

Note

Spent the weekend of 8/9th sat on my backside editing Southdowner 189 and hoping the rest will help my back find its natural state again. Left shoulder is so tight I can barely get my clothes on.
