Running for Hallamshire in the 5k race of the Northern league. Luckily I managed to fit my race in between downpours; the others were not so lucky. Was feeling pretty ropey all day (thanks Mr Middleditch).

Started off a bit too fast (4.47 for first mile) - felt fine though until 2 miles where I really started to struggle and I got overtaken (not sure who he was running for but his name was Ian).

Ran 15.28 which was ok - didn't really know what to suspect.

C • I suspect... 1

Run to Woodburn road and back again, plus a bit of warming up in between.

Got roped into doing the long jump. Jumped poorly in the rain - 4.85 (think my pb from last year was 5.20 or something).

Andy's birthday run from Strines - very nice it was too. Quite entertaining watch route choices being made by committee with no one having a clear idea where we were going.

Long run from work - parks, bridge, edge, pole, stone, valley, done. Was pretty knackered by end.

Run to work in the morning.

Run home; a bit speedier (but it is downhill).

Run home via Crimicar lane and then down the valley. Felt ok, but calves are still sore from the half marathon (think it was cos of the racing flats (and also the tarmac)).

Nice and steady run to work - it was a bit convoluted in order to get the 5 miles in

Slow dawdle home - calves sore, but other than that seemed to be holding together ok.
