Through the woods

23 May

Thursday and I'm still taking it a little easy after last Thursday's chest incident. I could feel it a little after yesterday's 20k so took it easier still this morning, looping up through the woods and a few parks to cover a gentle 12k. It felt strangely difficult, not like I was fatigued, but just like I had no energy. When I got home started to feel very low and I've come down with the cold which everyone else has had - so that all makes sense!

This afternoon took the kids to a cool new playground in Camberwell which had a preposterously tall fireman's pole. Naturally I tried to haul myself up it, and only afterwards thought that it was a dumb thing to have done, so I think whatever damage I caused myself last week we can safely say is fixed! Off to Sheffield to see Claire's folks tomorrow morning so perhaps a run in the countryside...
