@steevc just finished a 8.43km run, that lasted for 50 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 597.0 calories.


Description from Strava:
My local parkrun was cancelled today due to a waterlogged course. I can see on Strava that some of my running friends went to other events, but I thought I could just do a local run on my own. I do not worry about any running streaks even if I do for Wordle and Duo Lingo. Those are easier to keep up.

I did the loop around the villages that I have done many times. It has some uphill on the way to Fairfield to work my legs. I tried to keep the pace up a bit and it went fairly well. It was a nice morning for it even though it has been a bit of a wet week and I avoided any mud.

As I came out of Stotfold I made a stop at the outdoor gym to lift a kettlebell and do some other upper body exercises. People were gathering across the field for Saturday soccer.

When I was nearly home I bumped into one of my musician friends, so stopped for a chat. Then it was a little jog back.

I will try for a longer run tomorrow and need to decide where to go.

Enjoy your weekend and run free!

You’re a dedicated runner, sure, but a musician πŸ‘©πŸΌβ€πŸŽ€ stops for another πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ€!!

Good on you for getting out. πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

I see a few of my friends around when I am running and sometimes I will stop for a chat. In this case I was nearly home anyway. It was quite nice out and the rain has mostly held off so we could get some things done in the garden.

It seems you took advantage of a rainy week by getting in a great workout ;)

Did I? Not sure what you mean :)
