Another beautiful day, another fabulous run!

The early stages of any training block are always really enjoyable. Progress is generally quick and that “glad to be out again” feeling takes precedence over any of boredom or frustration. Today was one of those runs. Sunshine, gentle breeze, spring in the air, spring in my step (regardless of the pace, that’s how it felt!).

Still very frustrated with Runkeeper though. Managed to add a third of a mile to today’s run so as a reliable training tool, I’m beginning to reconsider.

Can’t believe it’s only April. Felt like a glorious summer’s day. Despite what Runkeeper says, today’s run was 6.5 miles (not 7). Nor did I reach 28 miles per hour! Runkeeper’s inaccuracy on a beautiful clear day with a full view of the sky is worrying to say the least. I think I’m going to have to resurrect the Forerunner 305 after all (after everything I’ve said about Garmin!)

Anyway, I’m not going to let technology ruin a lovely run in the sunshine. Today was glorious and you can’t beat a lunchtime run to shake out the cobwebs. Hoping to get away from work more or less on time today so I can take Buffy up to Lyme Park – I do feel guilty for leaving her in the house on a day like today.
