Comeback Road

Starts here: the Causeway to Mackworth Island (this photo actually captures the causeway from the island, looking towards the Mainland). And no, it hasn't started snowing yet. But it was a fairly brisk 38 degrees F when we struck off from Scott's house. We ran to/from the island and around the island 3 times. The to/from bit is 1.5 miles and each lap is also 1.5. This was my best run in awhile. 6 miles (9.65K) in 51:18. The run breaks down as follows:

To the island 7:18 at 112 bpm

Laps = 13:35, 107; 12:10, 126; 12:02, 132; and back to Scott's in 6:12, 132. I was tuckered out, in a nice way, at the end, with none of the hip, hamstring, or other leg stuff that has been a fixture to my runs of late. I'll add a lap next week.

Well done Pete. A good run is a good run and you take 'em any way they come. Nice looking road that.

Thanks, yes. Inch by inch.
