I did my favourite run this morning. I’ve missed it over the last few weeks. I wasn’t sure how I would go .. the hills can hurt. Because of my reduced volume of training over the last few weeks, I have been building up slowly again and this week I was due to add a few extra k’s to my training. I have and I haven’t felt too bad.
Maybe I tried to do a bit much but I told myself that I would walk up Spider Hill and really slow my pace. The hills were s..l..o..w. My hamstrings were tight, my hip flexors were tired and my calves were screaming at me .. but I didn’t stop. I just kept my pace slow and I lumbered along. My legs really felt like lead, there was no graceful stride going on today .. oh, wait .. I don’t think I’ve ever had a graceful stride, that’s just wishful thinking.
Anyway, while I was out today I thought I would take a few snaps of my bush track run over Spider Hill …
How fabulously peaceful does this look!? There is no noise out here .. just the birds and our footsteps …
