Road run race (Worthing parkrun) 20:18 [5] 5.0 km (4:04 / km) rhr:56 weight:73kg
Got a new 'disposition' test. If I'd just driven to Wasdale, would I want to get out the car and head straight up Lingmell (2649 ft) for a 'legstretch'? Answer for well over a year now has been a resounding no, mostly due to right hip discomfort. But over the last two weeks some of the appetite has been coming back. And I'm keeping up the physio. Tried to carry some of the 'desire' to Worthing pr (Chi cancelled). Couldn't remember whether I needed to be at the turn in 9.20 or 9.40, so 9.30 felt like an acceptable compromise. Pace judgement extremely difficult so alternated between feeling ok and fatigue. Would have loved to get under 20 but knew at pier it was going to be almost impossible so settled for what I could get. Actually ended up with best ever age-graded result (77%) so feeling positive. Beach Run and Bognor Prom beckon.
