No room for more race T-shirt’s, medals, certificates... here’s my Strava virtual bling.
Not much at all , but a lot more than a long time ago!
Narrowly bagged my May 10k via a build up of a route discovered last week, via some local lakes.
It was not easy to get going, get the right nutrition and get up and go. Not quite direct to the point, did some extra exploration miles to get to the 6.1miles and call it a day.
Most pictures circulated of this hidden gem, was just a view of the tranquil lake...but it takes a runner, dog walkers, licensed fishermen and some cyclists to road test the path to find the patches where one can enjoy these tranquil views, and weather those exposed trunks, mixed terrain delights for the unseasoned.
This is not Crown Estate, manicured metalled roads. Far from it in some cases. It was a highlight extension for my otherwise now new normal run around the block. Unfortunately, with the amount of trash left around, it must have been the highlight of some locals lockdown outdoor sun-bathing excursions too - an inflatable what?
Here’s to June. Will there be more Strava challenges to keep me going this month ,before I cough up a subscription , new shoes and perhaps a bit of regained freedom with lockdown easing (and hopefully not a second virus peak)!
