HM25 - ramping back up

21.4 km02:09:126:04 min/kmStrava

I found a slightly different route up to St. James’s Park via Kennington. It was a bit busy in places - very different to how it’s been throughout the last few months.

I’m nearly done listening to the Sandman on Audible. Great to hear it this way. More like a radio play thank a book being read. Quite interesting that it translates so well given it was a graphic novel originally.

Knee and thigh didn’t hurt or twinge, which was my main worry going for the full distance - I had a break last week on the long slow run.

So with the marathon changing format I’ve got seven weeks to ramp up to do it! Longer next week then...

Donate to my charity

I'm running the London Marathon – it would be awesome if you would sponsor me to raise funds for the National Autistic Society.
