the week of Newark Parkrun
Four runs and nothing else this week, so the legs got no variety and no complaints were accepted. 20.1 km all told across 2h 3m, with the longest one only 35 minutes, proper lil bites rather than one big meal. Three days unbroken in there too, which is the sort of thing I'd never plan but apparently just do now. The heart rate peaked at 174 bpm on the club run, so that one was clearly hard af, but the 5K came in at 28:12 and the mile at 8:43, which is not too shabby for a week of cheeky short stuff. Only 83 m of climbing, so the hills can't take the blame for any of it. Quick and sweaty beats long and thoughtful, every single time.
