Day 62 - Sunshine

When you were in the sun today it felt like a lovely spring day so much so that for the first time since last year I ditched the tights and got on the shorts and went for a fantastic run through all the woods in the area. I was pleased as pie as well because I did over the hour and felt really good and strong. The conditions were ideal wet under foot but in true Essex clay style very sticky which does have the advantage of meaning you can descend very quickly because you through your foot in the ground and you sort of aqua plane for a few centimetres before your other leg comes through and your surfing on that one. I never really used to enjoy trail running and off road running I was always paranoid about my knee popping again. But these runs this year I have thoroughly enjoyed. Enjoyed even more since being fitter as well.
