Training: running to work again, again

Yep, mad as it seems (to me), I ran to work a second time in the same week. The opportunity was there again so I took it on the basis of "you can never guarantee you'll make it to parkrun, so run whenever you can".

I'll admit, I was hoping I'd be even quicker than earlier in the week, and while it got off to a good start (not having to wait to cross the dual carriageway), I couldn't keep the pace this time. I was carrying a few clothes in a tiny kids' rucksack this time, but I doubt that made the difference.

My morning office; I'm practically part of the furniture in this place. "White filter?"

Anyway, by the time I got to the Civic Centre, I'd had enough. Using the excuse that I probably couldn't get into work yet (the key cards weren't working), I stopped short and ducked into Pret. I'd done just over 7km, according to Google Fit, in a time of 37:44. Not bad, but not my best pace.

Fingers crossed for a parkrun too now.
