Sunday run: Up above the streets and houses

Many Brits will get the significance of the title.

It was another damp morning, but more wet air than real rain for much of the run and not terribly cold. There were lots of leaves around, so I had to be wary of it being slippery. I stepped in a few puddles and had to trek through some muddy patches. I started off on the regular Sunday loop to Fairfield and decided early on to extend it out to Norton.

I felt like hard work today, but then there were periods where I was just gliding along absorbed in my podcasts. Even the hills were not going to put me off.

I only saw a few runners, but lots of dog walkers. None of the dogs caused me any trouble today. When I got to Norton there were a group of people who looked like they were warming up for a run, but I did not hang around to see.

Not a bad run overall. I feel I need to do these longer ones to build my stamina. The pace was nothing special, but I could have pushed a little harder.

Run free and stay well.
