A lunchtime run!

rmc28The weather forecast was sufficiently cool-and-damp that I took my running gear to work, intending a lunchtime run for the first time in weeks (fx: checks community, 3rd July, so nearly 8 weeks).
By the time lunchtime came around, I was feeling distinctly dont-wanna-run, which for me is different from not actually fit to run. Usually it means I really should go, because I need a change of scenery and a mood boost.
The sun came out while I was running but it wasn't too warm, and indeed before long I was feeling pleased I'd gone out.
I ran it at 1m:1m and came at pretty much the 'expected' pace for that ratio, and a little slower than the 11k 'slow run' I ran on Sunday. I think this means that I've got pretty good at running for 30s at a time between walk breaks, but need more practice at running for 60s or longer. Magic Mile this weekend is definitely called for.
