I had to leave my car at work yesterday - so this morning, I did a long easy run to get to work. This was an adventure run through both the roads I drive every morning and some free-range areas that were new to me. Lots of improvisation as to exactly which turns to take. The last 2.5k were hard (out of the shade of woods, onto warm asphalt), but all in all this was amazing. I felt good all the way. Distance: 24.38k Pace: 5'37" Edit: typo. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

This run was a struggle. First, I'm just not built for (or at least not trained to) run in afternoons. It is what it is. Second, since I closed the laptop and went on vacation Friday afternoon, I have been tired. My body seems to have fully embrased that I can now just relax. So even though both distance and pace were fine today, I never really found my flow. It was hard work. But a run is a run, and I am happy I did it. Distance: 6.87k Pace: 5'34" #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

@askekammer@mastodon.online great way to get to work...and retrieve the car - years ago before I migrated to Malta, I used to get the train from the Wirral to Liverpool...(it goes under the river Mersey), then i would...jog to work, or the gym...but it certainly wasn't 24km..that is a really excellent weekday long run to start a splendid day
