Both girls were up and atom this morning for our trip to Coventry and despite a bit of travel sickness for one of them, we arrived well in time for kick off.
It was great to see several KHRC runners during the warm up and for the first time in weeks I was able to start a long run with friends rather than on my own and ran with Sean from start to finish. It was a bit hilly in places but a really pleasant route, made all the more pleasant by taking it easy and no heroics. We came home in a few seconds over 2.00 hours, and with no pains or niggles, I was really pleased with the result.
I love having these two cheering me in at the finishing line. A pity they can’t make Manchester.
I managed a photo with a few of the KHRC contingent at the end – look at that beautiful blue sky!
So that’s the long ones done and dusted. Two weeks of shortish runs at a steady pace, lots of stretching and core strength exercises and hopefully I’ll be good to go.
I can’t wait!
Great work, well done. I enjoyed Coventry when I did it in 2016 (I think it was), with all the villages etc. It wasn’t blue skies then, however! Happy tapering!
