Today I was busy all day at work with corss country races which was great fun.  But it meant that I had to run after work!

On the way home it was pouring with rain and windy so I knew I’d need to get out quickly otherwise I might feel too comfortable in the house.

I set off wearing a rain jacket, gloves and buff but within a mile or so the rain stopped and it was a lovely night for a run! I’m so glad I made the effort to go out and run.

I wanted to do 7miles so I went on my Gallowhill loop …

I ran 7.19miles in 54:33 at an average pace of 7:36 so quite happy with that. I’m looking forward to starting my 6 week build up to the Hardmoors 30 next week.  I’ll post my training plan tomorrow!
