That was fine

I didn't even stress too much about getting out there. I mostly made the decision last night when I cancelled the Body Pump class I'd booked for this morning (I do tend to cancel more classes than I attend. Poor attitude) 

So I went out and didn't walk and didn't feel quite so out of breath. I got tired and kind of ignored the plan to add a few more metres and make it to 5k, but generally I feel very pleased with myself. 

4.51 km

6m 48s per km

So actually it was faster than I've been for ages and one of the splits was 6m 24s. Means nothing. Keep going

Peaked too soon?

So - I was confident setting out this morning and it was mostly fine. Until about a mile from home, my left calf began to ache. It's pretty much ok - but it's one of those niggles which make me wary of running. I'll stretch and strengthen the thing and hopefully next time it won't hurt.

I tried on my Nike shorts this morning and wondered whatever possessed me to buy them - they are so ugly - or is that just my legs?

Otherwise, unremarkable. But in truth the less drama the better...

4.98km

6m 52s per km.

Slower - but I went very slowly after about 1/2 way, just cos I was a little hungover and not very fit...
