I don’t know if it was the rain, or whether Joe had a meeting or what, but he was certainly in a rush today. We started “steady” and then the pace got quicker, the second and third kilo’s were a little over 5 minutes. Luckily at this point we reached Rickmansworth and an opportunity to [...]

Well, today was a day of not really feeling like the effort I put in equalled the speed I got out. I seemed to spend the whole run feeling as though I was trying hard but not getting anywhere fast. My heart rate data suggests that I wasn’t working that hard as the average was [...]

Well today I was a bit of a victim of timing, when I got up this morning it was sunny and so I thought I would wait a bit before going for my run. Then as I took Sam to cricket it started to rain and then didn’t stop for hours. So, eventually I waited [...]

A sunday morning trail run today. I tried a new route, well I tried to correctly do the route I tried a few weeks back, although in reverse. It all started well, a pleasant downhill run through the woods, cross the road and head off up through the fields. At the top hang a left [...]

So another Saturday morning and to be honest I was feeling tired this morning and sitting on the sofa seemed a better idea than actually doing anything. Oh and it looked cold outside! Eventually I summoned up enough energy to get myself ready to go, on with the jacket and out the door. I decided [...]

It was grey and cold when I went out at lunchtime, and I only really fancied doing the minimum today. However, once I got going I was feeling ok and was going reasonably well so decided I would do a bit more. The route went down the Ebury Way to Rickmansworth and then back along [...]

Well I think my Garmin is Lazarus, it has risen from dead to once track my runs. I have no idea how long it will last, but it’s good to have it back. I have to admit that today on my run I did have two Garmin’s on, just incase it didn’t last. We went [...]

Speed kills, or so they say and I reckon they could be right, too many more runs with Joe when he is in a rush certainly could kill me off. A simple road run round the estates of Watford was the plan, and yes the route stuck to the plan I wasn’t sure where the [...]

Well its funny that using someone else’s Garmin feels slightly wrong, I can’t put my finger on why that is, but it just feels odd. Having said that I was grateful to have a Garmin to use today, although it does seem to take an age to locate the satellites, but I guess beggars can’t [...]

A disaster occurred to day, my Garmin has completely died. I charged it up after yesterday and it said it was fully charged, and then when I went to turn it on at lunchtime for my run it wouldn’t come on. No matter how hard I pressed the on button nothing happened, I tried charging [...]
