This has to be the only place in the world where after the epic storm we had last night the next day it’s actually hotter. Where’s the sense in that?

Anyway, hotter it is. The 5.37 miles I did earlier this morning was pretty brutal - the last mile or so was hardy enough that it even began to affect my gait. I found myself leaning slightly against my left hip. Partly this was due to the fact that many of the roads around here camber quite steeply, but it also had a lot to do with being pretty tired. I had less recovery time than usual between workouts thanks to running so late last night, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Splits:

Overall I edged just over 35 miles for the week. As said, next week I’m going to add a mile or so to each daily run and try to get up to around 42.5, and then attempt my first fifty the week after, when I’m back in the UK.
